Resizing or Reshaping Objects

To stretch an object

1. From the Modify menu, choose Stretch.
2. Select the object using a crossing window selection. Press ENTER.

   The crossing window must include at least one vertex or endpoint. Specify a crossing window either by entering a c or by clicking, moving your mouse from right to left, and clicking again.
   

3. Do one of the following:
   
   • Enter the displacement in the form of Cartesian, polar, cylindrical, or spherical coordinates. Do not include the @ symbol, because relative coordinates are expected. Press ENTER at the prompt for the second point of displacement.
   • Specify the base point for the move and then specify a second point, the point of displacement.
   Any objects with at least one vertex or endpoint included within the crossing window are stretched. Any objects that were completely within the crossing window are moved without stretching.
