Resizing callouts (arrows affect overall size!)

[fat chance]

After you place more than one callout on a page and want to make the comment box of the callout the same size (a common goal), it seems that the arrows attached to the callout are included in the width and height dimensions of each callout.

So when you resize (using the "Same Width" "Same Height" or "Same Size" option on the [Arrange] ribbon).. the application resizes all callouts selected according to the overall size of the primary callout (this includes the length of any attached arrow).

Unlike the process of resizing text boxes (which works fine).. you simply cannot get the comment boxes on callouts to be the same size. Callout comment boxes get squeezed, or stretched at random - because the arrow length is included in the Width and Height size - the length of arrow on each callout is 99.999% going to be unique, so the process of resizing callouts will drive you nuts. you simply cannot get the comment box on the callouts to be the same size!...

Am I missing something, is there a way to resize all comment boxes of your callouts (to be the same), and leave the arrow lengths out of the equation?

Try adding a keyboard shortcut for example to automatically fit the field.

I have to do that all the time because when the font is smaller than ca. 10 or something the text box doesn't become any smaller

Hello,

Thank you both for the discussion, I have spoken with the dev team and they agreed to look into this as a possible future improvement, however at the moment we cannot guarnatee it can be implemented. I have also created a formal feature request to track this:

RT#6277: FR: Callout resize to only change textbox size - Retain Arrow position.

Kind regards,
