Tips
- In the Publication Window of InDesign you'll find the Zoom buttons and related tools in the following locations: Magnfying Glass in the Tools palette; Current magnification field in the lower left corner; Magnification pop-up menu next to current magnification field.
- Once you create an image with an embedded clipping path then place your image into your document you'll need to access the path information or turn on the clipping path in order to turn off the background or other portion of the image you've clipped.
- By default InDesign will show the Rectangle Frame Tool in its Tools palette. This tool has a flyout with an Ellipse Frame Tool and a Polygon Frame Tool.
- If you want to rotate your object 45% or a multiple of 45%, hold down shift as you use the Rotate Tool.
- The Scissors tool can be used to split paths, shapes and frames and to reshape them.
