Is there a "non uniform scale" plugin?
-
Hi all, the attached images are of the top of a cello 'scroll' I created with 'follow me' I am fairly happy with it but in the interest of accuracy I would like to taper the whole thing so it is more true to life. Is there a taper, or "non uniform scale" type plugin that could acheive this?

You could do this with the native Scale tool, too. Turn on hidden geometry and make selections of one segment at a time then start scaling (a bit tedious but if you have not done this yet, a good chance to start learning it). The Scale tool can be extremely powerful. Look at this video for example:
Use the Shift, Ctrl or Shift+Ctrl modification keys to toggle betwen scaling about opposite point or center and uniformly or non-uniformly.

Also FredoScale...

Or VertexTools ($) ...

Hi, steved:
You might want to look in the Plugins Index for the tools by "max-cx". There may be a way to make this shape with one of his tools.
Otherwise, FredoTaper as part of FredoScale package.
