TruCUT RDWorks Scaling Objects with the (AB) (Part 3) the Arrange Bar Video Mini-Series

Now when it comes to this feature on the Arrange Bar, it does not quite work the same as other scaling tools.

When I say that it does not work like most other scaling tools, I am referring to the fact that it will scale one shape to the scale of another.

This video is part of a Mini-Series.
Next video covers Align to Page.

Alright, guys, In today's video, we're gonna be looking at how to scale objects to the scale of another object using the features located on the range bar. This will be for Trick. It already works. So yeah, let's have a quick intro first. Then we'll get started. Mm mm. So today's video can be found on softwaretraining.co.za. We make sure an easy to watch problem solving videos and we also have daily updates otherwise, back in the programme here. Now, just a reminder. This miniseries on the range bar and I will leave relevant links and descriptions. You guys can actually follow it along. Now I'm gonna come to the scaling. We've got three different options we can look at, so we have the horizontal very cool and height and with the horizontal and vertical together. Now, something that's quite important to note about this feature is that it will scare your object or objects according to the last object selected. So if I select the 1st, 2nd and then third, it will scale it According to the third object body, by just select side, side centre will scale according to the centre object. So the actual selection order is rather important. Um, it's the only thing about this and you can scale multiple objects to pay shape. Or you can simply just do one to another now. Yeah, If you do not have this man, you just go view and make sure you're arrange Bar is active in my case, it is. So now let's quickly scale will start. Maybe with one we scaled to the size of this rectangle. So I've kept shifting. So I will select with my normal selection. Tool keeps shifting. Select the next ship. Now this one has been selected last. So now if I had to go against Kayla with, then you will see the overall now gets the or the circle now gets the width of the rectangle which turns into an oval. Now you can do the same with the height, can scale the height and then do all scale the height accordingly. No, the last one year. If I select now square and then the rectangle then we've got the last option. Here is where you can scale with and the height together. If I click this, you'll see in one action it will do both. And now we have duplicate Albert. Now, if I had to take this one, that's just quickly a liner to it's lost object, man. And then if we do the one scale you can see nicely, Yeah, that it fits it nicely within this shape. So yeah, that is a quick way of scaling objects to another object size. So if you have a template, say this is your template and all your shapes has to be exactly the same size. Then you can always do that. We can even select some text, grab it to the shape and then you scale the with You can do that. I would not easily but if you have strict design requirements, sometimes you need to do that. But yeah, Otherwise, if we had here to softwaretraining.co.za Today you guys will need to get a variety of different software to to cover, and also you can isolate your search on the top of right. Just type in what you're looking for. I need a little magnifying glass button. Otherwise, if you do not find what you're looking for, just go here, requested training video. Then we will make that video for you. But otherwise thanks guys for watching and cheers
