Rotating, Scaling and Moving Shape

  1. Point [Move] on [Edit] menu, and click [Scale, Rotate & Move].
    Then you will be able to scale, rotate and move a shape.
    2. Supplemental
    ▪ You can enter into the shape scaling, rotating and moving status by clicking on [Edit] toolbar.
  2. Select a shape to scale, rotate and move.
  3. Click the base point for scaling, rotating and moving on the drawing.
  4. Specify a scale.
    When specifying scales along X and Y axes in numeric values
    Switch the parameter on Command Window to [Scale], and input scales along X and Y axes.
    When specifying the ratio of the length from the base point and that from the locate point
    Switch the parameter on Command Window to [Scale Base Point], and click the scale base point on the drawing.
    When specifying the scale and angle simultaneously using 2 lines connecting the base point/locate point and the specified 2 points
    Switch the parameter on Command Window to [Scale⁄Angle Base Point], and click the angle⁄scale base point on the drawing.
  5. Specify an angle.
    When specifying rotation angle in numeric values
    Switch the parameters on Command Window to [Angle], and input a rotation angle.
    When specifying the direction point for rotating
    Switch the parameter on Command Window to [Angle], and click the direction point for rotating on the drawing.
    When rotating using the angle for the line connecting the base point and specified point as that for the line connecting the locate point and specified point
    Switch the parameter on Command Window to [Angle Base Point], and click the angle base point on the drawing.
  6. Click a position where a shape is to be scaled, rotated and moved on the drawing.
    When specifying the scale and angle in numeric values
    The selected shape will be scaled, rotated and moved to the clicked position.
    When specifying the scale and angle on the drawing
    Click the point to decide scale and point to decide angle to scale, rotate, and move the selected shape.
Supplemental
▪ You can specify individual points by inputting X and Y coordinates in the coordinate input box on Command Window.
▪ To input a relative position from the base point as the locate point, input coordinate values using [@X coordinate , (comma) Y coordinate] format in [Locate Point] box on Command Window.
