Help!
Please can someone help me, before i go insane!I have made this lid, but i want to make each triangle 2.75 inches wide at the bottom edge., bt keep the same height. I have tried enlargeing it, that doesnt work. I have made each triangle the size I want, then cant get it to line up. I have been sitting here since 5am and it is now 10.19 and i have given up. I have a project made that just needs a lid. Please, please can some help me. Thank you so much. Now i cant get the image to show ....... Now I cant work out how to attach the file !!!!!!!!!

Might be able to have a look at it later this afternoon if nobody with better Studio skills than me comes up with an answer.
All I can suggest for now is - draw a line 2.75 long - put a perpendicular line the height of the triangle in the dead centre (use the grid to line things up) then draw two lines from the top of this line to each end of the 2.75 line. Remove the perpendicular line. Group the 3 lines left.
Copy the triangle however many times (was it 4?) and lay them exactly together as you need them. Un group and make the lines in the middle dotted. Add the flap. GROUP everything and try it out.
Good luck - off out now but will look in later to see how you got on.
