Re: Scaled World<BR><BR></FONT></DIV>
<DIV>Hi Daniel --</DIV>
<DIV><BR></DIV>
<DIV>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.</DIV>
<DIV><BR></DIV>
<DIV>Cheers,</DIV>
