Automated shape resizing

[Matt]

Hello,

I've developed a product roadmap in A1 size, with layers for each applicable
subsection. I need to do the following, which can be done manually, however
is it possible to do this for the majority of shapes (or even in groups?)

- Use ShapeSize Window to add formula to each shape to automatically resize
text
- Resize shapes to fill an A3 page, after layers have been selected for
presentation purposes. (Currently, it is set to A1, scaled to A3 and
applicable layers selected however there is a significant amount of white
space).

I'm not sure I understand what you want to do, but try this article:

Hi - do you also know of a way to resize multiple shapes and standardise
their dimensions in one go without having to go into the shapesheet for each
shape and manually change?
