## Global Scale

To select global object scale, press the object scale button or select ``Scale'' from the ***OBJ EDIT*** menu. When the pen/mouse is pressed, the edited object is scaled about the key point by an amount proportional to the distance the pen/mouse is from the center of the screen. If the pen/mouse is above the center, the edited object will become larger. If it is below the center, the object will become smaller. The scale command can be used to enter precise scale factors. The value entered is applied to the object as it existed when object scale was entered. Hence entering scale 1 will return the object to its size when the object scale session first started.
