`scale`Element

Scales content without affecting layout.

Lets you mirror content by specifying a negative scale on a single axis.

Example

#set align(center)
#scale(x: -100%)[This is mirrored.]
#scale(x: -100%, reflow: true)[This is mirrored.]

Parameters

scale(

auto length ratio,x: auto length ratio,y: auto length ratio,origin: alignment,reflow: bool,content,

) -> content

`factor`

auto or length or ratio
Positional

Settable

The scaling factor for both axes, as a positional argument. This is just an optional shorthand notation for setting x and y to the same value.

Default: 100%

`x`

auto or length or ratio
Settable

The horizontal scaling factor.

The body will be mirrored horizontally if the parameter is negative.

Default: 100%

`y`

auto or length or ratio
Settable

The vertical scaling factor.

The body will be mirrored vertically if the parameter is negative.

Default: 100%

`origin`

alignment
Settable

The origin of the transformation.

Default: center + horizon

View example

A#box(scale(75%)[A])A \
B#box(scale(75%, origin: bottom + left)[B])B

`reflow`

bool
Settable

Whether the scaling impacts the layout.

If set to false, the scaled content will be allowed to overlap other content. If set to true, it will compute the new size of the scaled content and adjust the layout accordingly.

Default: false

View example

Hello #scale(x: 20%, y: 40%, reflow: true)[World]!

`body`

content
Required Positional

The content to scale.
