scale
Scale a solid or a sketch.
By default the transform is applied in local sketch axis, therefore the origin will not move.
If you want to apply the transform in global space, set global
to true
. The origin of the model will move. If the model is not centered on origin and you scale globally it will look like the model moves and gets bigger at the same time. Say you have a square (1,1) - (1,2) - (2,2) - (2,1)
and you scale by 2 globally it will become (2,2) - (2,4)
...etc so the origin has moved from (1.5, 1.5)
to (2,2)
.
scale(
objects: SolidOrSketchOrImportedGeometry,
scale: [number],
global?: bool,
): SolidOrSketchOrImportedGeometry
Arguments
Name | Type | Description | Required |
---|---|---|---|
objects | SolidOrSketchOrImportedGeometry | The solid, sketch, or set of solids or sketches to scale. | Yes |
scale | [number] | The scale factor for the x, y, and z axes. | Yes |
global | bool | If true, the transform is applied in global space. The origin of the model will move. By default, the transform is applied in local sketch axis, therefore the origin will not move. | No |
Returns
SolidOrSketchOrImportedGeometry
- Data for a solid or an imported geometry.
