Scale
The Scale button displays the model dimensions, along with the ability to
scale along the X Y or Z axes. Anything below the number 1.0 will reduce
the objects size, while anything above the number 1.0 will increase the
objects size. As a default, it will be set to uniform scaling. This will cause
the X Y and Z axes to be scaled by the same amount when you make a
change to any of them. To disable this, select the lock in the lower section
of the scaling window.
