» 05 –  Moving objects as you draw

 

The capabilities of InDesign continue to grow and expand, which means that you can develop more and more aspects of a page layout from within InDesign itself. Drawing functionality that used to be the preserve of Adobe Illustrator can now be found in InDesign. Knowing some of these techniques means you can work more quickly and efficiently. This tutorial sequence shows you how you can move and position an object as you draw it.
