This command is only available if a single object, group or symbol is selected. It opens the Scale dialog which allows you to change the proportions of the selection. Two percentage boxes are provided to adjust scale in the X and Y axes respectively.
In this dialog 100% is unity. A number less than 100 in either of the textboxes will make the object smaller in that axis, a number greater than 100 will make it bigger.
If you wish to mirror an object just apply a scale factor of -100% in one or more directions, depending on your desired mirror plane. For example, to mirror something horizontally apply -100% in the x axis.
The effects of scaling can be undone using the Clear Transformations command.
Symbols can only be scaled if the Scale Symbols entry in the Options menu has been checked.
