To scale an object in Adobe Dimension, use the following steps:
-
Activate the Select Tool: Ensure you have the Select Tool active. The default shortcut is pressing the V key.
-
Select the Object: Click on the object you want to scale in the scene.
-
Identify the Scale Handles: Once the object is selected, you'll see handles appear around it. Look for the square-shaped handles.
-
Scale the Object: Click and drag one of the square handles to scale the object.
- Dragging a corner handle will scale the object proportionally in all three dimensions.
- Dragging a handle on a side will scale the object along a single axis.
Tips for Scaling in Adobe Dimension:
- Proportional Scaling: Hold down the Shift key while dragging a corner handle to constrain the scaling proportionally. This maintains the object's original aspect ratio.
- Numerical Scaling: You can also adjust the scale values numerically in the Properties panel. This gives you precise control over the object's size. Select the object, and look for the "Scale" parameters within the "Transform" section of the Properties panel (usually on the right side of the Dimension interface). Here you can enter specific values for X, Y, and Z scale.
- Pivot Point: The scaling will occur relative to the object's pivot point. You can adjust the pivot point if needed.
By following these steps, you can easily scale objects in Adobe Dimension to create the desired look and feel for your designs.
