Fix this with "Scale Drawing". • Scale Drawing: Select a scale category, then a value other than 1:1 from the dropdown for the selected scale category to scale the drawing. For upscaling, select "Custom" and enter a custom value smaller than 1. • Scale Rule: You can display the scale with a ruler. The number of units used along the ruler can be selected (e.g. to make the ruler show marks for one, ten or one hundred centimeters).</label> </page> </param> <effect needs-live-preview="true"> <object-type>all</object-type> <effects-menu> <submenu name="FabLab Chemnitz"> <submenu name="Transformations"/> </submenu> </effects-menu> </effect> <script> <command location="inx" interpreter="python">scale_to_real.py</command> </script> </inkscape-extension>
