Scale Multiple Blocks Simultaneously From Individual Basepoints

[Jim Clayton]

Hello.  Does anyone know if there's a Lisp out there capable of doing this or maybe a way of doing it that I'm unaware of?  Currently anytime I select multiple blocks/scale/select base point, it scales everything from a single base point so everything changes size, but also moves from the desired location.  Fixing it can be rather time consuming.  It would be great it they all scaled from their own individual base points and stayed where they needed to.  Suggestions?  Would greatly appreciate any help.  Tks.

Select all the blocks, then right mouse click and select properties. This should show how similar all the blocks are,  *varies* means that property differs across the blocks. This screen will allow you to set the x , y and z scale factor of all the blocks at the same time, relative to each blocks insertion point.

Hi,

You can use the properties palette after selecting your desired blocks to scale to change the X,Y, and Z factors.

Thank you both.  Will check these out.
