Design File Settings Dialog, Active Scale Category
Consists of controls that are used to set the active scale factors and to toggle Scale Lock.
The active scale factors are applied when placing cells with the Place Active Cell or scaling elements with the Scale .
Setting | Description |
---|---|
X Scale | Sets the active scale factor along the view x-axis (horizontal). |
Y Scale | Sets the active scale factor along the view y-axis (vertical). |
Z Scale | (3D Only) Sets the active scale factor along the view z-axis (depth). |
Lock control | If locked, the scale factors are constrained to the same value; keying in one changes all. To turn the lock control on or off, click it. |
1.0 | Sets the active scale factors to 1.0. |
Halve | Multiplies the active scale factors by 0.5. |
Double | Multiplies the active scale factors by 2. |
Scale Lock | If on, scale factors are rounded to the nearest multiple of the specified tolerance. |
Tolerance | If Scale Lock is on, the active scale factors are constrained to multiples of this value. For example, if Tolerance is 0.25 and Scale Lock is on, the active scale factors are constrained to 0, 0.25, 0.50, 0.75, and so on. |
