• Type 0 scaling (anisotropic scaling, and the default) allows you to specify different sized x-axis and y-axis
units. Hence the area specified by X
P2.
• left and bottom settings have no effect in type 0 scaling.
• Type 1 scaling (isotropic scaling) forces x-axis and y-axis units to be the same size. As a result the area
specified by X
defined by P1 and P2.
• With type 1 scaling you can specify the percentage of unused space that is to lie below, or to the left of, the
isotropic area.
• left specifies the percentage of unused space you want to lie to the left of the isotropic area, and can be from
0 to 100. If you do not specify the value for left, it is automatically set to the default value = 50%.
• bottom specifies the percentage of unused space you want to lie below the isotropic area, and can be from 0
to 100. If you do not specify the value for bottom, it is automatically set to the default value = 50%.
