Scaling
You can specify a scale factor for the active machining plane as
well as for the tool axis. The programmed coordinates are then
multiplied by this factor.
Note that the scaling always refers to the zero point of the workpiece.
For example, if you increase the size of a pocket whose center point
does not coincide with the zero point, scaling will shift the center of
the pocket.
