shrink a model

Hello,


How do I do this:


Imagine a model of a washer with inner and outer radii. I want to increase the inner radius without changing the outer radius. I also have a complex interdigitated pattern on the "washer" that needs to "scale" as well when I am finished.


The intial image is a DFX file.

For changing the Inner radius alone you have to make it as a configuration,


you can scale the model as a whole only,you can find this tool in insert\feature\scale


Say suppose you scale the model by 1% (ie) if 100mm should be 101 mm in the scaled model you have to enter 1.01 as scale ratio
