Scaling with the Free Transform toolThe Free Transform tool lets you drag a bounding box handle to scale an object. Objects scale relative to the opposite handle, or you can change the reference point to the object's center. You can also lock the proportions of an object as you scale it. If the object has a stroked path or a size-related effect, the stroke and effect will scale with the object if the Scale Strokes & Effects preference is selected. (See Setting scaling preferences.)
