Scaling textbox wiith textcontent

[990731]

Is there a solution for scaling a textbox with content, so that the content also resizes in porportion?
Like in Quark (on mac OSX) holding Ctrl, shift, apple.

Yea.. I believe, but I am not sure. I think you have to click on the box with the text in it, and then using the Transform palette, just change its dimensions from say 100% to 200%. That should scale the box and the text within the box. I havent been able to shift-apple or any key command and drag the corners and have it resize like a picture will.

There may be an easier way, but you can definitely just group the text box with something (I usually just draw a line or rectangle on top of the box) and then resize it (holding down the shift key to maintain proportions).

In ID CS, cmd/ctrl enables you to scale text & frame, and adding the shift key makes it proportional.

Sounds like another good reason to upgrade from my 2.0.
