    Default WD 6- Design gallery page size

    Hi all,
    After a couple of years since I last dabbled with building a website, I fired up WD6 to try again. Starting from scratch I found out how to resize a single page from the design gallery but is it possible to resize a complete website set from the gallery? (as opposed to doing this manually for each page).
    Thank you,
    Colin.

    Colin, could you explain how you resized the page?
    I assume you are opening up a website set and it is then in your design space.

    I can't recall WD6 directly but in WD9P, there is Utilities > Options... > Page size > All pages in website the same size.
    All that does is alter the Page background dimensions, it does not reposition the page elements.

    Hi Acorn,
    Sorry, i wasn't very clear in my post.
    I did exactly as you said but what I meant to ask was is it possible to resize all the page elements on the page together in one go, keeping them in the same positions relative to each other.
    The one page I have done, involved resizing each element separately, to give a complete page at 1024*768 pixels.
    Hope that makes sense and thanks for answering.

    Colin.

    Colin, it will be a page-by-page process.
    Ensure all objects on all layers are unlocked and select them all.
    Then scale by a percentage or drag a corner with the aspect ratio locked.
    Use the Snap to objects setting to align the objets centrally to your new page size.

    What I have found to be more effective it to create a Guide Layer with horizontal and vertical lines and then align the scaled objects individually on their intersections.
    I found having that finer granularity more empowering: having an element only one pixel adrift is very annoying for you as a designer and for the end viewer.
