Scale components, bodies, or sketches

Learn how to use the Scale command to enlarge or reduce selected bodies based on a specified scale factor.

1. In the Design workspace, Solid tab, select Modify > Scale.
2. Select the body or bodies to scale, and pick a fixed anchor point for the scaling.
3. Choose a Scale Type from the dialog:
   • Uniform. Scale the body uniformly on all axes.
   • Non Uniform. Scale along the x, y, and z axes separately.
4. Use the manipulators or the dialog to set the scale distance (-0.5 to halve the size or 2 to double the size, for example).
5. Right-click and select OK to finish the command.
