Overview

This tutorial explains how to resize 3D shapes in Tinkercad (1.6) by using on-screen control points, modifier keys, and precise numeric input.

Resizing with control points (drag handles)

  • When a shape is placed on a sketch plane and selected, corner/edge points appear around it.
  • Drag a corner point (white point): changes the shape size broadly (e.g., affects dimensions related to that corner).
  • Drag a black point (or the black point on the side midpoint): changes the size in a more limited way—only one side length is affected.
  • Note: during resizing, height may not increase depending on which handle you drag (i.e., some handles change length without changing height).

Changing height/length using specific handles

  • Drag the white point shown for vertical control to extend/shrink the shape upward, affecting height.

Key accuracy tip

  • The length adjustment point and the black triangle (used for position/height adjustment) are very close together.
  • Click precisely to trigger the intended adjustment.

Maintain proportions (Shift key)

  • Dragging points can distort proportions.
  • Hold Shift while resizing to scale uniformly, keeping a constant ratio (demonstrated with a circle).
  • With Shift, additional behavior includes:
    • A fixed point appears on the opposite side
    • A fixed point appears in the top-left corner

Center positioning (Alt + Shift vs Shift only)

  • Shift + Alt: resizing snaps/adjusts the shape to the center during scaling.
  • Shift only: scaling is freeform, while still keeping the aspect ratio.
  • The tutorial also mentions pressing R to fix the center position specifically.

Numeric precision (enter exact dimensions)

  • In Tinkercad, after selecting a shape, numbers appear at corner points.
  • Click a point, then click the corresponding number to enter an exact dimension.
  • For height:
    • Click the relevant white dot, enter the desired height value, then press the action (subtitles suggest “Print”) to apply.

Units tip

  • Tinkercad uses millimeters (mm) by default.
  • Example: 50 mm = 5 cm.
