Scale
This tool scales the selected UV components uniformly about the UV coordinate closest to the pointer, which is represented by a cross.
You can double-click on UV points with the Move, Scale and Rotate tools and the following dialog window will open:
The point on which you clicked can then be repositioned numerically in UV space.
The same options apply as for the move tool except that the point and edge snapping options have no effect. The Scale option under Quantize has the advantage that you can scale a UV polygon safe in the knowledge that you can return it to its exact original size later on.
