How to round just one corner in InDesign.


Rounding corners is all the rage to day with the cool kids, but the problem is that if you try to use the corner effects/options menu in Adobe InDesign you will can only round all them. What if you want to be trendy and round just one, or two. Be crazy, what if you wanted to do three! Well, the answer my friend lies in the scripts panel.
To open the scripts panel go to window > automation > scripts. In InDesign CS2, you will not have any scripts. They are on your InDesign install CD, but CS3 does indeed install many scripts by default. Inside your scripts panel, is a script called corner-effects. To run the script, just select your object and double-click the script and enter your desired numbers in the options window and pops up.
