Scale plane
-
Is there a way to align the scale tool to the plane you're working on? I love the tool, in general, but hate that as soon as the object being scaled is no longer perfectly aligned with XYZ axis then the tool distorts. I don't think it does what I want, but I'm hoping someone will tell me a way to make it work like the rotate tool, where you can hover over the axis you want, hold shift, and it becomes locked on that new axis. Ideally this would work with both single planes and complex groups.
I suppose this would probably be a plugin request -- I'm just hoping it already exists and I've just never figured out how to do it. -

Several suggestions:- Place your drawing axis along the direction you want to scale;
- Freod's scale tool will do "out of plane" scaling, search for it in the plugins forum. Sorry don't have the url handy now
