streching object

how to strech some object in AutoCAD. but no scale it, only strech it up and
down, but the distance between the measures has to bee the same. thanks.

 

"Measures has to be the same" ??
Aren't you talking about MOVE ?

You need to use Scale to change the size of the object, or Stretch to
change it in one direction, or Zoom to view it bigger on the display.

What do you want to do?

 

Yes I didn't explain it very clear. so I have for example an object and on
it I have a scale (from 1 to 50 for example). Now what i want to do is to
stretch the object up and down but not left and right. because when i use
scale it goes bigger in all directions. thanks.

 

You give the answer by yourself.
Use STRETCH.
Select the upper edge (use crossing) and move it upwards.
Select the bottom edge (use crossing) and move it downwards.
Another way is to move it upwards first, than stretch it down.

Hope this is what you are looking for.

Or make a block. Then you can scale X and/or Y as you want.

I suspect he is trying to stretch a block, so Geronimo, you may have to use
properties box and change the y scale only.

it's not a block but I can make it as one if necesary and later explode.
I'll try, thanks guys.

 

I make it as a block and stetch it but when i explode after, the text stays
all messed up. I tryed the version with stretching but the drawing just
moves not stretches. I don't understand what happens. I would like to post
one of these drawings so someone could take a look if it's not a problem. on
what binaries are you posting. thanks.

 

Put the drawing in : autodesk.autocad.customer-files, it is at
discussion.autodesk.com
We'll find it there.
