BOXES, LINES, AND TABLES

How it works
On the measurements palette, you can select any of 9-reference points as •
indicated
Once you set a Reference Point, all boxes in that particular layout will work with •
respect to the selected reference point. On creating a new project, the reference
point will be reset to the ‘Top Left’.
Previously, when you rotated any object either manually or by using a mouse, •
the object rotated from the center. In QuarkXPress 2019, the box will rotate
from the selected Reference Point.
Resizing boxes
You can resize any box by modifying the size of its bounding box. A bounding box
is a non-printing, rectangular shape that encloses every box. The box’s item handles
demarcate the bounding box. The best way to view the bounding box clearly is to
use the Item tool to select item handles on a Bézier box.
