Hi,
In Illustrator,
I have a simple line that is slanted. How do I change its length to a specific size?Been stuck on this for a while.

you have the Transform pane open?
Window > Transform (apple)

Assuming the line is straight, you can do it with a calculator
WIndow > Info , check width and height
then its current length is square root of (w^2 + h^2)
then find relative % to needed length + scale

Or:
Draw a circle with radius of needed length, so that its centre is at any of the two ends of the line
Then outline from pathfinder

Thanks drgs
Im surprise that illustrator doesnt have a tool for that. Its seems so basic.
