, [pivot=[linear, linear, linear]], [rotation=[angle, angle, angle]])
Note: Strings representing object names and arguments must be separated by commas. This is not depicted in the synopsis.
scaleComponents is undoable, NOT queryable, and NOT editable.
This is a limited version of the scale command. First, it
only works on selected components. You provide a pivot in
world space, and you can provide a rotation. This rotation
affects the scaling, so that rather than scaling in X, Y, Z,
this is scaling in X, Y, and Z after they have been rotated
by the given rotation.
This allows selected components to be scaled in any arbitrary
space, not just object or world space as the regular scale
allows.
Scale values are always relative, not absolute.
