You can resize queries, groups, frames, repeating frames, fields, matrix objects, and boilerplate objects. You cannot resize anchors. However, an anchor is automatically resized if you move one of the objects it anchors.
Caution: When you resize boilerplate text, be very careful that all of the text fits within the object. If font descends (the space left for the lower parts of letters like g and q) do not fit, the line of text will appear in the Report Editor view, but, when the report is run, the line will not appear in the output. When you click a handle and drag it, the two edges that join at the corner will be resized; that is, the object will grow or reduce in both the x and y directions.
