Stretching a orated object does not work

[QfanatiQ]

I have a drawing at a tilt. So I have a group at the same angle.

However, when I stretch this entity it will not stretch all parts equally. BUT if I have it on the 0deg horizontally/vertically then it does.

Is this a glitch, bug or typically poor handling by VW?

It is taking me much longer simply to place notional wardrobes.

Please tell me I am doing something wrong?

Cheers! Most of us are on these boards are just end users like you. NVW and most of us are enjoying our weekend. Fresh air can clear the mind and help one approach problems differently.

I think I understand your problems and frustrations, but...

If I do, I would use the rotate tool to rotate your closet pole and hanger group. The Architect version of VW has such a symbol in the Furn/Fixtures toolset, the angle of which can be set by dragging the handles at the end of the pole, or, more accurately, via the OIP. But with Fundamentals, use the rotate tool or modify>rotate to orient your group. Dragging the right and left handles, top and bottom handles or corner handles will stretch the group, but it will be very difficult to control. Modify>Scale Objects... works too(often best with a calculator). HTH

Oh and you might want to add your VW version and machine specs to your profile. It can help us giving relevant answers to your questions.
