1D scaling?

Post by artisanicview » Tue Mar 15, 2016 7:18 pm

I need to rescale some rectangle shapes only in one side. I'm trying to use the scale tool for this operation, but unfortunately the scale tool is scaling the rectangle shape on both dimensions.

Is there an easy way to scale a shape only in one direction, X or Y?

Yep - unlock the proportional scaling and you are "free" in x or y .... :wink:
