Hello there.
I'm trying to scale a mesh down. I go

Node > Transform > Edit

Then change the scale.
Why isn't it working?

errr. I don't have transform options under node.

i go
rightclick>transform>edit. change scale
rightclick>transform>apply

to uniformly transform several shapes. make all the children of the same node. do all your transforms on the parent node. the apply the transforms. and the apply the transforms on the children....down the until everything is zeroed. the you can unparent everything.

just realised i am on the mw forums...still not haven't got the hang of the forums. :facepalm:

Transforms on the root node are ignored. Either apply them so they get passed to the child nodes, or work with the specific children you want to scale.
