Scale nested groups, then remove "Reset Scale" option

[Napper]

I just made a major mistake drawing a rather complex set of windows in the wrong units. (Feet instead of mm). Only noticed it, after inserting them into my bigger model. Now what I can do is scale them using the scaling tool but somehow Sketchup always remembers that this is a scaled group and keeps offering me to reset that group to its original size. I don't want that... I want sketchup to forget that initial size. Is there away to do that appart from exploding all groups and regrouping?

Kind regards,

Napper

Hi Napper,

Use the scale tool inside the group/component (while editing it). You can also use the Tape measure tool to scale a group/component while editing it (again). Measure an edge whose desired size you know and after clicking the second time, just type the desired value.

Again, inside the group/component (this is important as beside SU remembering that it is a custom scale, your materials will also be scaled with it).

Alternatively, if it were a component, not a group (why not?) when right clicking on a scaled component, you also have a "Scale definition" menu item. That will tell SU that this should be the "normal" size and not an exceptional one. When you have windows in a model, they are likely to be in several instances anyway in which case components are preferred anyway.
