Scaling with the Transform Each command
The Transform Each command lets you scale objects by a negative or positive percentage factor and also lets you set random values. Objects scale relative to their center points or you can change the reference point in the dialog box. You can also create a scaled copy of selected objects without affecting the original objects.
To scale multiple objects individually with the Transform Each command: - Select the objects.
- Choose Object > Transform > Transform Each.
- To set the scaling reference point, click a handle on the reference point locator
in the dialog box. - To set the scaling percentage factor, do one of the following in the Scale section of the dialog box:
- Enter percentages in the Horizontal and Vertical text boxes or drag the sliders to set specific scale percentages.
- Select Random to set random values. Deselect and then select Random again to set new random values.
- To preview the effect before you apply it, select Preview.
- Do one of the following:
- To scale each object, click OK.
- To scale a copy of each object, click Copy.
