I would love to have the ability to scale my viewports non proportionally in either the ‘X’ or ‘Y’ (screen space) axis when the viewport is set to parallel. [Scaled viewport wish] At the moment I’m using a Pascal-script in Rhino7 but would love to have this integrated into normal Rhino. I’m also…

[image] Gijs de Zwart: no, this is not possible. You either stretch in X or in Y. I cannot go lower than 1 for the X or Y pixel size. If I would start in the middle as you say, this would act as zooming in. You can try this yourself by starting the command and setting both sliders to 50 @Gijs …

@laborda @davidcockey I see, I totally overlooked that. I’ll get it tuned up for the next WIP

A scale factor of 100, the maximum of the current slider, is much larger than I’ll ever use and make the slider too sensitive. A maximum of 5 would be sufficient for me although others may need a larger range. A user set range is needed. The ability to also directly enter a scale factor is desirable…

Not behind a pc right now but I believe the slider can be double clicked to set a value. When you have subtle defects in a surface like @eobet was showing, I’m quite sure 5x is not sufficient. Your application seems more targeted at getting your object stretched to the size of your viewport.

RH-91049 StretchDisplay: allow compression RH-91050 StretchDisplay: set bounds

Thanks a lot @Gijs for the new update in the 9.0.25350.305 version. the new bounds and compression options work grate! Anyway I found a inssue, if you change the shade mode the scale resets and the sliders stay visible but not responsive, is this something you are aware of?

@Gijs Thanks for adding compression and setting the bounds. The ability to directly set the scale factor by typing is still desired. Double clicking on the slider has no effect. Rhino 9 SR0 2025-12-16 (Rhino WIP, 9.0.25350.00305, Git hash:master @ 69fb66b96bed17a080523ef11d679d871f25b6d0) Licens…

[image] laborda: Anyway I found a inssue, if you change the shade mode the scale resets and the sliders stay visible but not responsive, is this something you are aware of? Yes, the way this works is that it temporarily changes the display mode. I don’t think I can easily work around that lim…

I havn’t read this thread, just skipped through it. When I try the stretch display command in the latest wip the sliders appear but when I move those sliders nothing happens. What am I missing?
