Resizing parts
When you resize a layout part, FileMaker Pro always maintains the size
of the other parts. For example, changing the size of the header won't
change the size of the body.
In Layout mode, use the pointer to drag the part label (or the dotted line
below the part) until the part is the size you want.
Changing part types and options
You can change a layout part's type and options, including the break
field, numbering, and page break settings in the Part Definition dialog
box.
To display the Part Definition dialog box, double-click the part label in
the layout or see “Adding layout parts” on page 3-27.
Deleting layout parts
You can delete all but the last part that remains on a layout. Deleting a
part doesn’t affect your data. Before you delete a layout part, you can
drag any objects you want to keep to another part on the same layout.
1. In Layout mode, choose Part Setup from the Mode menu.
2. In the Part Setup dialog box, select the part to delete, and then click
Delete.
