    anybody know how to scale a circle?In x direction,the scale factors is different,The new distance between two intercept points is a nonlinear function about the old distance.I got the distance from(for the same y coordinates,get the subtraction of two x coordinates).Do you have any good idea?

    Linear,
    Could you post what you have now, so we can determine
    'what' to change ?

    Wouldn't it be loads easier to use a unit block (1 unit dia. X 1 unit tall) and insert it with the required X, Y and Z values???

    Ok,
    I see what you have. Now, is it that it is not working, not completed, or working, but you want a cleaner approach ?

    Good guess,
    but the scaled circle is not a perfet ellipse,It has nonlinear relationship with length in x direction.The scale factor of x is variable.
    Thanks
