About the project
The Skalierer is a compact yet powerful tool that scales a large number of objects to a desired size — either in ascending or descending order.
I used the script, for example, in a project with a power pole where numerous objects simulated the power cables. Due to the extreme perspective, the Skalierer significantly eased adjusting the objects to represent the perspective realistically.
The workflow is remarkably simple: select all objects to be scaled, set the desired final scale on the last object, and run the proportional scaling of all objects. The tool automatically calculates the intermediate steps for a smooth transition.
