For example, a scale factor of 2 will increase the size to twice of its original value and a scale factor of 3 will increase the size three times.Įnter the scale factor and press enter. Similarly, scale factor greater than 1 will increase the size of the drawing. For example, a scale factor of 0.5 will reduce the overall size of your drawing to half of its original dimensions and a scale factor of 0.25 will decrease the size of the object to one-fourth of the original size. This scale factor actually determines the final size of your window.Ī scale factor of 0 to 1 will decrease the size of your object (in this case window).
The command line will now prompt you to specify the scale factor. The base point will remain fixed when the object is scaled, in this case, I am using the lower left corner of the window as the base point. Now select the window drawing and press enter. Select the scale tool from Modify panel of the home tab or use its command SC. To explain scale command I will use this simple window block which has the size of 10 unit along the X-axis and 15 units along Y-axis. Using scale command you can change the size of an object in AutoCAD. In this article, I have included as many scenarios as possible where scaling is required and I have explained them with relevant examples.
