Scaling, Feature or Bug?

So I scaled an object to .95 setting and all was ok. I previewed and output a .x3g file.

Closed the program, reopened, then the scaling was 1.00 again. However the part was smaller like I scaled it previously.

Re: Scaling, Feature or Bug?

This feels like a bug to me, I've experienced the same thing: The scale value should stay as set by the user, rather than "resetting":
If I bring in multiple parts and scale them all differently, upon reopening the tool I'd expect those scale values to be preserved.

Re: Scaling, Feature or Bug?

I posted this exact same question a while back and the answer I received from S3D was that this is a 'feature' and not a bug.

With all the other wonderful features in S3D I also find this quite odd myself.

Re: Scaling, Feature or Bug?

Posted this also a while back. This "feature" just cost me about 20+ bucks of wrong sized prints that are supposed to fit together.
