Moving and resizing popovers
You can move popover buttons and resize popover buttons and popovers.
To move a popover button (and its popover):
 •
In Layout mode, drag the popover button to the new location.
When you move a popover button, its associated popover and all objects on the popover move with it.
See Moving objects on a layout.
To resize or reshape a popover button or popover:
1.
In Layout mode, select the popover button or the popover.
If the popover is hidden, select the button, then choose Format > Display Popover. Select the popover.
2.
Drag a selection handle to change the size or shape of the popover button or popover.
On a popover button, the icon size doesn’t change if you resize the button. You can change the icon size in the Popover Button Setup dialog box.
See Defining or changing a button.
Notes
 •
If you make a popover smaller, the objects on it may become truncated or hidden. Truncated or hidden objects are still part of the popover. When you open the popover in Browse mode or Find mode, scroll bars appear, allowing access to all objects on the popover.
 •
If necessary, you can place a popover button close to the edge of the layout’s viewing area. If the popover’s display direction will extend the popover beyond the viewing area, the popover will open in the direction in which it is most visible. Scroll bars appear on the popover, if needed, to allow you to display all the objects on the popover.
 •
You can’t move, resize, or reshape a locked popover button. See Protecting objects from change.
