How do I change the default size increment to resize a textbox

[Guest]

I am trying to resize a text box to match the width of another textbox.
Draging the size clicks in about 1/4 inch increments so I can't match size
exactly as needed.

Thanks

Joe

You can either hold Alt while you resize the text box to override the
grid or you can use the Properties of the text box to set the height.
Right-click the text box and select Properties.

Pressing Alt overrides the grid. Another way to approach this is to change
the grid interval or disable "Snap to grid." From the Drawing toolbar,
choose Draw | Grid.
