Scaling shape from Center rather than upper left corner:

Susy Mason shared this problem 2 years ago

Solved

I need to scale a shape from the center so it looks like a ZOOM and JIM seems to scale the shape from the upper left corner.

I have followed a prior support question about this with no success: https://www.justinmind.com/community/topic/scaling_from_center

My event is ON TAP and here's what is happening:

I also am not able to manually manipulate the object when defining an event. See the attached PDF.

IMPORTANT: I do not want to center all objects on a screen- I am only talking about zooming this one object from it's center/

Hi Susy,

Check out the attached example. The trick was to make sure resizing was 'relative to parent'.

Can you explain more on the issue in the attached PDF? I'm not exactly sure what you're referring to.

Best,

Danielle

That solved it- thank you Danielle! I checked "Relative to Parent" and made the parent window really big and it simulated a zoom wipe to orange
