When you drag the cursor, the selected objects and subobjects are resized
along the specified axis. Click or enter a value to specify the scale from the
selected base point.
Scale a 3D Object Along a Plane
Constrain the mesh object scaling to a specified plane. Each plane is identified
by a bar that extends from the outer ends of the respective axis handles. Specify
the plane of scale by moving the cursor over one of the bars. When the bar
turns yellow, click it.
As you drag the cursor, the selected objects and subobjects are scaled only
along the highlighted plane. Click or enter a value to specify the scale from
the selected base point.
Scale a 3D Object Uniformly
Scale solid, surface, and mesh objects uniformly along all axes. As you move
the cursor toward the center point of the gizmo, a highlighted triangular area
indicates that you can click to scale the selected objects and subobjects along
all three axes.
As you drag the cursor, the selected objects and subobjects are scaled uniformly.
Click or enter a value to specify the scale from the selected base point.
