Hi
When you group 2 or more images and then double click on the new grouped image, why does the + and - button not appear on the toolbar? For some reason I thought it should do but it isn't! :confused: I very rarely enlarge images in this way but the children in my class do and we noticed this happened today with a grouped image. Did it maybe do it pre AP2.5?!
Doesn't really matter but I'm curious! :rolleyes:
Thanks +wave+

They appear in AP2 - just checked before doing the upgrade to 2.5 at home - have made a complete mess of it at school!

How weird! :confused:

Managed to mess up my install too! Haven't attempted it at school yet - might be one for the technician!

You're not imaging things - the + & - did use to be available on the object edit toolbox for grouped objects
However, this could cause problems with part of the group growing at a different rate to the rest of it.
If you resize using the pickups then all the parts of the group grow correctly

Thanks Louise - yes I know what you mean about that problem now - I've encountered it with some of the images in the Resource Library.

Thanks for explaining it.
