Explanation


Scale Feature

This feature increases or decreases the size of an object around the reference point.

 

  • [Select Target]
    Enter the target object to change size.

  • [Scale Factor]
    Enter the scale factor for the target object.

Set the reference point for the size change.

 

  • Geometric Center : Sets the reference point at the geometric center.

  • Bounding Box Center : Sets the reference point at the center of the bounding box that surrounds the selected objects.

  • User defined : Sets the reference point at a user defined point.

Sets the coordinate system to which the magnification is applied.

 

  • GCS : Sets the global coordinate system as the reference coordinate system.

  • LCS-Bounding Box : Sets the coordinate system with the longest axis of the selected object’s Bounding Box as the x-axis, the shortest axis as the z-axis, and y-axis as the normal direction of the xz plane.

  • UCS : Sets the reference coordinate system using the user-defined vectors

  • Uniform Scale : Selects whether to apply the same magnification to each axial direction in the reference coordinate system.

 


  • Uniform Scale On (Default)

Applies magnification or reduction equally in each axial direction using single maginifcation value.

 


  • Uniform Scale Off

Applies magnification or reduction using a different magnification value for each axial direction.
