The Scale Constraint operates similarly to the translation constraint but focuses on synchronizing the scale properties of one object with a target. This lesson covers setting targets, defining axis-specific copying, setting percentage-based limits (min/max), and the behavior of constraints when duplicating objects.
- Decimal Representation: Scale values are treated as decimals in the constraint settings (1.0 = 100%).
- Reference Space: You can change the reference space used for calculations, which is useful when working with nested groups or complex hierarchies.
- Synchronization: Scale constraints are ideal for maintaining proportional relationships between multiple UI elements or character features without manual keyframing.
