<blockquote>Try putting everything in a playfield (found in the
supplies flap), get its halo of handles (cmd-click (MAC) alt-click
PC), get its viewer (click on the blue eyeball handle at left-center),
look in the geometry category and set the scale factor to something
other than one. You can then use the yellow handle to rescale the
playfield and everything inside will follow suit.</blockquote>
