Updated layout features - all Roman languages for Macintosh 2001-08-10

We recommend updating Adobe InDesign 1.5.2 to include the following layout fixes: Grabber handAfter installing this update, you will be able to access the grabber hand in InDesign 1.5.2 using the same keyboard shortcut you use in Adobe Illustrator when working with text or text on a path. When you press Command + Spacebar and then release the Command key, you’ll have access to the grabber hand without losing your text selection. Note: Pressing the Option key also gives you access to the grabber hand when you’re editing text.Fitting text frames to textThe Fit Frame To Content command (Object > Fitting > Fit Frame To Content) will now resize rectangular text frames smaller, so the frames fit their text content. For more details about fitting text frames to text, refer to the ReadMe file in the layoutup.hqx archive.Master pagesPreviously, you could set up a frame on a master page, apply the master page to a document page, and then fill the frame with text or graphics content. However, InDesign treated this action as an override of the master page item. If you changed the size, position, or shape of the frame on the master page, those changes would not apply to the document page. Now, in response to customer requests, InDesign no longer treats filling master frames with content as an override. For example, if you autoflow text into a master page frame that appears on 10 document pages and then resize the master frame smaller on the master page, all 10 document pages will automatically reflect the change.

* Image data stored in layers, grouped layers, layer sets, and hidden layers
* Layer masks
* Layer blending modes/ranges
* Layer opacity
* Layer effects
* Adjustment layers
