Hi niko, yup like Burr mentions instead of holding down and dragging on the scale handle, click and release the mouse button on it - that switches between "scale from center" and "scale from opposite corner" modes.

It looks like I will be adding in an OrientLineToLine command for the next v2 beta as well, which will work like the Orient 2 points command that you were asking about earlier. So that will be another option in the next beta.
