Following guide will also help you to find most common and useful implementations that will help you to quickly fix your design using this application:

1. Precision Resizing With Mathematical Calculation
To resize the object and save your day, math is the best way and it saves your day and Adobe InDesign applies math calculation to simplify the size of resizing and define the dimensions of layout and the object exactly in the size that you want to make it. With the Transform Palette and Control Palette, you can simply calculate and resize the design.

2. Blend Your Text With Story Editor
Story editor is one of the best features of Adobe InDesign software and it helps to take control over the overflowing text frames. This tool shows you hidden text content so you can change in the text frame of your layout. It also helps you to handle complex text easily.

If you want to select and edit the text frame and apply a stroke affect then this method is good for it. With the help of swap swatch tool, toggling between text and frame is simple to make the text so simple in just a one-click. This tool also helps you to change the color of the entire text.
