Shortkey(s) for setting width rectangle?

Postby pythonforspss.org » Mon Aug 26, 2013 11:38 pm

Dear all,

Can I set the width of a rectangle or other object (to 100px for example) by merely using the keyboard?

Thank you in advance,

Ruben

Hi.

Select any of the objects,
press Tab until you reach the right object,
press Alt+X to enter the controls bar,
press Tab to get to the right values,
type in the new data and press enter.

I wasn't aware of Alt + x, that does the trick. Thank you for the assistance, it's appreciated.
