      @syllie I made a new thread for this problem:

        @gotanidea I found that and linked that in my post, but it looks like there are some other views in this thread too so it seemed more appropriate.

          I really appreciate how in Inkscape this is solved by a toggle at the top of the screen.

          Yes, this is in the backlog for version 1.2

            Hi Admin, have you made this option in version 1.2? It is very important to enlarge and shrink a vector artwork easily, without having to plan for the stroke sizes of the vector artwork at the beginning of the creation.

              Did not make it. It is still in Object Options or the Document Setup (for the whole document). It is also in the Transform panel menu.
              The main issue with the context panel now is that it is way too crowded with options and buttons, and I need to add customization for it to have more space.

                Since you brought this up, could we move these back to being under the "Transform" tool again? perhaps with the option to have them visible in the contextual menu if the user desires?

                  The Transformed Stroke option in Transform panel menu, Object Options and Document Setup is not the same as Adobe Illustrator's Scale Strokes & Effects feature.

                  Please see the video and the example in this thread:

                    Yes, these are different. I will try to implement a similar transforming mode. The problem is that it might conflict with existing features.
                    I moved this feature up the the backlog.

                      Hi Admin, is this Adobe Illustrator's Scale Strokes & Effects feature available in version 1.3? I can't find it

                        No, not in that form. Scaling is still handled as a non-destructive option (transform) of the object

                          The Transform Stroke option is destructive to my artwork. For example, I made a stroke and want to scale it up along with the stroke weight, but turning the Transform Stroke option on will change the stroke weight:

                          Transform Stroke bug

                          Here's the file:

                          It wouldn't happen if we have Adobe Illustrator's Scale Stroke and Effects feature, like what the video below shows (please watch after 01:00):

                          Adobe Illustrator's Scale Stroke & Effect feature

                          Could you please make that option?
