Page Assignment

Change panel size
This option is active when you select a page using the pointer button and you can use it to change the size of individual pages or panels. This option can be used to reduce the size (enter negative values) of the panel or increase the size (enter positive values). A modified panel size is indicated in the page arrangement grid with measurement arrows.
NOTE: Changing the size of one panel may affect the entire row or column, also on the other side of the sheet. The affected panels are indicated in light blue.
The values are applied to modify the actual page size as defined for the part in the job ticket editor.
Page orientation
Select a panel with the pointer button and rotate the page by 180 degrees. This does not affect the orientation of the panel on the other side of the sheet.
