Join David Blatner for an in-depth discussion in this video 395 Properties panel: Tips for the new user, part of InDesign Secrets.
- [Instructor] When InDesign CC 2019 came out … there was a lot of drama because the default workspace, … Essentials, was completely different … than what it was in previous versions. … And existing users were like, "What the heck? … "The Properties panel does not include all the cool stuff … "that we had before and it's not resizable. … "It takes up so much space." … Well, I'm going to show you just a couple tips … or maybe things you didn't know about … just to make the Properties panel a little easier … to deal with in InDesign. … First of all, the Control panel, what used to be there, … is not gone forever. … You can always choose it. … Just go to the Window menu, choose Control … and there it is, appears across the top. … Now that would be kind of dumb though … to have the Control panel and the Properties panel … running at the same. … So I'm going to reset Essentials to what it was before … and just mention that if you haven't discovered this yet, … Essentials Classic is what Essentials used to be. …
