getShapeScale()

Purpose

Find the current scale multiplier of a shape drawn with drawShape()

Description

Returns a vector describing the current scale multiplier of a supplied shape

Syntax

scale = getShapeScale( shape )

Arguments

shape Handle which stores the shape in question

scale Vector which describes the x and y scale multiplier of the shape

Example

shape = createBox( gwidth() / 2, gheight() / 2, gwidth()/2, gheight()/2 )
setShapeColour(shape, white)
boxScale = {1, 1}

loop
    clear()
    j = controls(0)
    boxScale += {j.rx, -j.ry} * 0.05
    setShapeScale(shape, boxScale)
    scale = getShapeScale(shape)
    printAt(0, 2, "X Scale: ", scale.x)
    printAt(0, 3, "Y Scale: ", scale.y)
    drawShape(shape)
    printAt(0, 0, "Move the right stick to change scale values")
    update()
repeat
