That pink line is a Photoshop centre guide. It wasn't used to scale anything, but it helps centre your work inside your file. I'm actually using the small rectangle box I previously created as a reference to scale up the drawing. I'm looking at the bench on the right side of the kitchen and trying to match that with the box I created.
Kinda useless when you don't want to change the size of the image but instead you want to change the scale to make for example 25m on the drawing = 2500cm in the photoshop when using ruler etc.
It won't affect the resolution if you're using a vector file (.PDF, .ai, .dwg). Vectors can be scaled infinitely without losing quality in resolution (eg. pixelating). Using a rasterized image (.jpeg, .png etc) can't be scaled up without losing quality unless turned into a Smart Object. So the solution is to export your files out as vectors so that you can scale them infinitely.
This is my ultimate frustration with youtube videos. I tried this on my photoshop. I have a 2019 v version, let me guess this one must be a 2020 version right????? In all these videos the version is never included. News flash even in the same year upgrades is always added. Year by year new upgrades make the previous year obsolete. You people somehow just assume that a computer program is written in stone, that it never changes lol. meanwhile, I am desperately searching for info and it illudes me because of this.
Hi Mark. This video should apply to most Photoshop versions. The only tool you need is to be able to resize a shape (which is in every Photoshop). I’m not sure where the issue you’re having is coming from? What is the issue exactly? Cheers
I learn more in youtube than lecturer "lecturing" us about stuff
hahaha that's the way it goes ;)
You are 👍. You give the smart and direct way to scale the revit drawing for my assignment. Thank you.
Thanks a lot Xue!
so simple and clever you're the best thank you!
You're so welcome! Glad it helped, cheers!
How did you manage to get up that pink line to scale everything @4:07

Hi! im trying to use de rectangle tool to now how long de house is but it shows me in pixels instead of mm, how can i change that?
Hey Vicki, you can change the settings by going to "Edit > Preferences > Units and Rulers". Cheers!
@@kylesinko thx so muchh❤️
I was searching this for long
same.
One question if you move them, it doesn’t affect in stretching the lines?
would the bench still be 6mm in width if in 1:50 scale?
Yep. The scale is just to represent the 6mm at a smaller size.
You saved me so much time! Thank you!

1:51 How did he move the plans around without the line he just made moving with it? I'm on a mac, so what does he mean by "hitting the alt key"?
I believe alt is option on Mac. The plan is on a different layer than the line which allows me to select and transform them separately from another.
Thanks alot! Was a quick and easy way to do this.
I’m glad. Thanks for watching Pete :)
Super smart! Thanks so much!
Thanks Thyrza! Glad you liked it :)
you saved my life
Ahah glad it helped
Thanks! But doesn't this method affects the pixel quality of the plan? Is there another way?
