Re-center

All content on the page is automatically recentered no matter the width. Unlike Scale, the content remains

its original size. You can achieve a similar result to video production safe zones using the Re-center rule with careful
planning and layout.

Guide-based

Guides define a straight line across the page where content can adapt.

• Whitespace can be added

• Text frames are resized, and the text reflows (but not scale).

• Placed image frames are resized and the cropping boundary dimension of the containing frame resizes.

To add a liquid guide, first select the page tool, then pull out the guides from the ruler.

Guide-based rules are similar to 3-slice and 9-slice scaling in Illustrator, Fireworks, and Flash. Watch this video on

Applying guide-based Liquid Layout rules

.

To convert a ruler guide to a liquid guide select the page tool and click the Convert to liquid guide icon on the guide.
The liquid guide is displayed as a dashed line, while a ruler guide is a solid line.
