Dear All, If I have used "scale 1.04" to scale up, will you please tell me the factor x in "scale x" by which I can return to the original size before I used "scale 1.04" ? Best regards. Smith

Without much further thought I would try (1/1.04) = 0.9615385 B. On Oct 15, 2015, at 10:17 AM, Smith Liu <smith_liu123@163.com> wrote:

Boris has the direct answer! My indirect answer is more of a general suggestion: use command “savepos” to save a position if you might want to restore it (with command “reset”). Of course, you have to do this before making the changes (scaling, rotation, translation…). Use commands “help savepos” and “help reset” to see their manual pages. Best, Elaine ---------- Elaine C.
