Hi Pilou, I remembered that we talked about this before and I told you I would do a plugin for you to do this type of scaling.

So here you go!

To use this, unzip the attached file into the \commands folder, then add a keyboard shortcut for ScaleArray, for example:

[Shortcut Keys]
Alt+S=ScaleArray

To use the ScaleArray command, you use any array command, but make sure to include a single point object with the objects you are arraying. The point object will become the center of the scale for each array instance.

After you do an array, select the arrayed objects (and only the arrayed objects, so for example if you do an array curve make sure the path curve is _not_ selected), then do Alt+S (or whatever your shortcut key is).

This will allow you to scale the results of the array, like this:



The point objects will be removed after the ScaleArray command is finished.

Was that the kind of thing you had in mind?
