How do I make shapes smaller and larger in editor?

Post by LilJJ243 »

I've seen lots of people's shapes blown up and stretched in their creations, and I was wondering how to do that. For example, in lol-men's creation "pick one! fast!" at the bottom of page nine in the gallery, his shooter is really big and a shape is stretched. How do you do this? Any help would be great. :roll:

In the editor, there's an area in the lower left that shows information about a piece after you click it. The first three numbers are position and angle, and the two after that are height and width. You can click in there and enter numbers directly. It takes a bit of experimentation, and sometimes it's not obvious which dimension is height and which is width until you change a number and see what it does. There may also be an easier way, but that's the one I know.

One extra note: you can flip a piece by entering a negative height or width.

Oh wow thanks so much. I was always wondering what those were for. I thought they were for placement of the object. Thanks so much!
