• To make multiple graphic items the same size, press the SHIFT key on your keyboard
and select each item. Then, right-click, point to Make Same Size, and click Width,
Height, or Both. When you attempt to make multiple items the same size, the largest
item is always the basis for the size change. Important: For an item to be made the
same size as another item, the item must not be locked — for example, the Maintain
Aspect Ratio check box should be cleared for any images, only text items with default
size text boxes can be resized, and so on.
• To delete multiple text or graphic items, click the Edit tool, drag the mouse on the map
to encompass the items you want to delete, and then press the DELETE key on your
keyboard.
