globally scaling a part
globally scaling a part
(OP)
Hi,
I am desiging a promotional product. Essentially it's a scaled down model of one of our products. It will fit on the end of a pencil and remind the user that they should look us up on the net, or buy on of our products. Yeah I know, cheezy marketing....
I have all the parts that make up the full size assembly of my model. Is there any way to take the assembly and scale the whole thing down where one could then make a simplified scale model?
Surely this has come up before?
Thanks for any input

If so, you can "Insert - Feature - Scale", and enter accordingly....

If you want a scaled down assy of your assy, I would save the entire assy as a copy then individually scale each part. Then re-open the copied assy. As long as you don't have distance mates in the assy, everything should maintain.
Hope these ideas help.
