Measurements palette
With the Measurements palette (Window menu), you can quickly edit many
commonly used controls. Options in the Measurements palette change to reflect
the selected tool or item. When you select multiple items of the same type (such as
three separate picture boxes), the Measurements palette controls apply to all
selected items.
Keyboard Increments allow you to use the keyboard arrow keys to increase/decrease
the values in several fields in the Measurements palette. Using the Shift/Alt key in
conjunction with the up/down arrow keys changes the amount the value is
increased/decreased. See the chart in “Palettes.”
(Mac OS X only) You have the option to make the Measurements palette 50% larger,
perfect for smaller screens with high resolutions.
The Measurements palette displays a row of icons called the navigator tab above
the center of the palette. You can cycle left-to-right through the Measurements
palette navigator tab icons by pressing Command+Option+;/Ctrl+Alt+;. You can
move in reverse (right-to-left) by pressing Command+Option+,/Ctrl+Alt+,.
The selection of tabs displayed on the Measurements palette depends on which
items are active, and the display of any tab changes to fit the item or items that are
active. The available tabs are as follows:
Home tab: Contains often-used controls. Displays differently for text boxes,
picture boxes, lines, tables and group boxes.
