      TIG, tried it and it doesn't scale properly. Working in sq. ft. units.

      Thanks. Ben

          I just checked it out... and in m² and ft² it works just fine for me ??

          What units/precision do you have set for your Model Info > Units > Area ?

          Can you attach a simple SKP that's causing you issues ?

            Architectural Units, accuracy at 1/16".

            Attached is the file. Original circle about 78sf. Larger Circle was supposed to be 100 sf.

              Perhaps it's the way the units are entered?

                When I try your SKP I get the wrong result too !
                When I test it myself it was OK...

                BUT now if I test it with a circle around the face it does scale oddly.

                If I explode the circle first it works OK...
                So something is adrift...

                It's because the scaling transformation affects the face's vertices, and when it's a simple outline they get process individually, but when it's a circle they get processed repeatedly and so the scaling is then way off !

                Leave it with me for a while why I invent another transformation method !!
                😲

                  TIG,

                  OK, thanks.

                  I get the same result if I explode the curve or polygon. Simple non-curve lines around a face work fine.

                    Here's v2.0
                    https://sketchucation.com/pluginstore?pln=TIG_scale_face
                    I've fixed it to cope with all face perimeters - i.e. circles etc...
                    Download the RBZ and install...
                    Please test it and report back...
