11. In the Control panel, either click the word “Transform” to reveal the Transform
panel, or click the center reference point of the reference point locator ( ) in the
Control panel. Ensure that the Constrain Width And Height Proportions is set (
),
and type 3.5 in the Width (W) field, and then press Enter or Return to increase the
size of the artwork. Notice that the Stroke weight has scaled as well, and is now 2
pt. Leave the artwork selected.
Note
Depending on the resolution of your screen, the Transform options may
not appear in the Control panel. If they do not appear, you can click the
word “Transform” to see the Transform panel or you can choose Window
> Transform.
By default, strokes and effects, like drop shadows, are not scaled along with ob-
jects. For instance, if you enlarge a circle with a 1 pt stroke, the stroke remains 1
pt. But by selecting Scale Strokes & Effects before you scale—and then scaling the
object—that 1 pt stroke would scale (change) relative to the amount of scaling ap-
plied to the object.
