question about scale

Solar2D General Questions/Discussion
#1

I’m sure it’s simple and I’m just over thinking it but if I have an object and I scale it by 1.5 how do I get back to the original size

#2

If I am not mistaken (which is possible) scale is relative to the original size. So setting the scale to 1.0 should bring it back to the original size… [import]uid: 5317 topic_id: 9286 reply_id: 33881[/import]

#3

no scale is relative to the size at the time of scale would be nice if there were a param to set relative to original size [import]uid: 7911 topic_id: 9286 reply_id: 33882[/import]

#4

local specialButton = display.newImage(“buttonBlue.png”)
specialButton.x = 240
specialButton.y = 280
specialButton.xScale = 1.5
specialButton.yScale = 1.5
localGroup:insert(specialButton)

local function myFF()
specialButton.xScale = 1
specialButton.yScale = 1
end
timer.performWithDelay(2000,myFF) [import]uid: 12482 topic_id: 9286 reply_id: 33883[/import]

thanks 123
I was using object:scale instead of .xScale forgot about that [import]uid: 7911 topic_id: 9286 reply_id: 33891[/import]

do something like this

module(…, package.seeall)

function new()
local localGroup = display.newGroup()

local image = display.newImage(“buttonBlue.png”)
image:scale(3/2,3/2)
local function myff()
print(“asd”)
image:scale(2/3,2/3)
end
timer.performWithDelay(2000,myff)

return localGroup
end [import]uid: 12482 topic_id: 9286 reply_id: 33894[/import]
