Description
This tool scales selected object(s) around a base point. If no object is selected, you will be invited to select one.
Usage
- Picking a point on an empty area of the 3d view, or on an existing object for the base point, then another point for the scale factor
- The x, y and z components of the second point define the scale factor. For example, (1,1,1) would do nothing, (2,2,2) would scale 2x in all directions, (-1,1,1) would mirror in x direction.
- Pressing CTRL will snap your point to availible snap locations.
- Pressing SHIFT will lock x and y values together, so the shape is not deformed
- Pressing ESC will cancel the operation.
- Enter numbers to manually insert a coordinate.
- C switches the copy mode on/off. With Copy on, objects will be copied instead of moved.
- Pressing ALT will make a copy, even if the Copy check button is off.
- If ALT is pressed, you will be able to make multiple copies until the ALT is released.
