ScaleTo Action

The ScaleTo Node.
Furthermore, visit the Actions Nodes page for a general introduction to these Nodes, and Scale for more detail about the
Scale
Attribute.
The ScaleTo Node Attributes.
Attribute | Type | Description |
---|---|---|
To | Vector3 | The desired final Scale values along the X, Y, Z axes, if none are given in the To Input Socket. |
Duration (sec) | Float | The total time of the Action, if none is given in the Duration Input Socket. |
Interpolation | Drop-down | The Interpolation method to use for calculating the intermediate values of the Scale . It can be Linear, Sine Ease In, Sine Ease In Out, or Sine Ease Out. |
Input | Type | Description |
---|---|---|
Instance ID | InstanceID | The assigned Instance ID of the Action. If nothing is received, it automatically assigns 0 as the Instance ID. |
(►) Start | Pulse | A standard Input Pulse, to trigger the execution of the Node. |
Object ID | ObjectID | The ID of the target Object. |
Duration | Float | The total time (in seconds). |
To | Vector3 | The desired final Scale values along the X, Y, Z axes. |
Output | Type | Description |
---|---|---|
Instance ID | InstanceID | |
OnStart (►) | Pulse | Flows to the next Node following ScaleTo Action when the Action starts. |
OnEnd (►) | Pulse | Flows to the next Node following ScaleTo Action when the Action stops. |
This section shows a simple example of how to use the ScaleTo Action Node and the effect it has on an Object. We start by configuring the Scene, then build the Logic, and finally show the result.
We consider a Scene with two Objects: a red ellipse over a black background, both of which can be easily created in the Scene Outliner. Then, we set the
Size
Attribute of the ellipse to and its
Scale
Attribute to . See this configuration in the following image:

Scene configuration.
We use the ScaleTo Action Node with the following Attributes:
To
:Duration (sec)
:Interpolation
:Linear
And we connect to it the Object Node of the red ellipse and a Pulse to the
Start
Input Socket. Thus, having the following Logic configuration:
Logic configuration.
Finally, the effect of the ScaleTo Action Node when triggered is the following:

Final result.
