To scale an object with the mouse: Select an object with the
Object tool and drag one of its size handles. Hold down Shift
to constrain scaling to the object's current aspect ratio. If
Snap-to-Grid or Snap-to-Guides are selected in the Layout menu,
the object will be aligned with the closest grid point or guides.
To scale multiple objects, select all of them and then drag any
of their size handles.
 If you scale an
object which has the Proportional
Scaling option selected, you will only be able to resize
the selected object proportionally unless holding down a Shift
key while dragging. |
To scale an object with the Edit palette: Enter new width and height coordinates, or multiple or divide the current coordinates by the the scale factor. For example, enter 3.87cm*.5 or 3.87cm/2 to scale an object by 50% when the current value is 3.87cm.
