Resize an object

Drag to resize an object or specify values in object properties.

Prerequisites

To resize an object, the alignment of the object must be left, top, or bottom. If the object alignment on the X-axis or Y-axis is Adjust, the object sizes dynamically according to the size of the container. You cannot scale the size of an object that is inside a container with respect to the size of the container.
Tip: The size of the Window object defines the size of the entire user interface. It can be set using the Width and Height properties or it can be automatically set equal to the size of the screen on which the interface is displayed at runtime using the Full Screen property.
To resize an object
  • In the editor, drag a sizing handle on the object.
  • In Project view, select an object and in Properties change:
    • Height. Enter the value for the height of the object.
    • Width. Enter the value for the width of the object.
    Tip: If you delete either the Height or Width value, the object uses the Auto setting. Text determine the size of the object.
