Use the Resize Drawing tool to change the size of the drawing by a per cent value or by numeric values of width and height. The dimension can be made independent or proportional by clicking the lock icon. The values can be entered in percentage or in any of the supported linear units.

Applies to: #
- current drawing
- selected objects
Steps: #
- Enter a value for width or height in any drawing unit or as a percentage.
- Define the origin of the resize operation by clicking on a point.
- By activating the Resize entire drawing by selection option, the entire drawing will be resized by the same amount applied to the selection. This is particularly useful when the drawing is not at scale (usually an imported drawing or an inserted image file) and you need to scale it. In this case, you can select an item of known size, open the Resize Drawing window, activate the checkbox and enter the real values. The entire drawing will be resized accordingly.
Constraints: #
- scaling can be proportional on both axes. Click the lock proportions icon to control this option.
