Change width and height of multiple objects simultaneously (arrange tab)
It seems you are only able to do this on one annotation at a time, if you select multiple annotations the arrange tab becomes useless.
would you consider allowing changing the width and height of multiple annotations simultaneously?
(and base content if possible)
Unfortunately these properties/values are not available in the properties pane....
This would be useful in scenarios like this:
(after changing font sizes etc.)

Re: Change width and height of multiple annotations simultaneously (arrange tab)
Hello, MedBooster
The only time the "arrange" tab should become entirely useless would be if you have selected various types of content with different restrictions on their resizeability (a locked or read-only flag on any selected item could do this), or if the items you have selected are on different pages.
In the current release, even stamps (which are locked to a specific aspect ratio) will work with the arrange tabs resize/transform functions. If you are using a collection of most comment items on a single page, than you should not encounter any issues: Beyond that for your own purposes, you can simply change the dimensions of the first comment as needed, and then select the others, and use the "Same Size" button: In this case, since the "Stamp" was the "primary" object, all the other comments were resized to the same dimensions: I can even use the alignment and distribute buttons to put them all in a column together for a quick comparison: Kind regards,
