# (JSON) Scale Vector

## Overview

![The (JSON) Scale Vector Node.](https://1553081948-files.gitbook.io/~/files/v0/b/gitbook-x-prod.appspot.com/o/spaces%2FU990HLHWA30dTfELtDUK%2Fuploads%2Fgit-blob-8279caf257a781e5367f24c26f0d62bd01d6eae6%2Fjsonscalevector20241.png?alt=media)

The **(JSON) Scale Vector Node** scales a **Vector3** by the **Float** value given as **Input**. It returns the scaled **Vector3** as well as the Euclidean norm of the new **Vector3**.

For example, if a vector of `[2,3,6]` were inputted and the given scaling value were `4`, the resulting `vector` would be `[8,12,24]` and the `norm` would be `28`.

Please note that this **Node** appears only when the **Logic Plugin** example is followed, the instructions of which can be found [here](https://docs.incari.com/incari-studio/toolbox/plugins/..#example). It will also disappear when the **Plugin** is deactivated in the **Plugin Module**.

[**Scope**](https://docs.incari.com/incari-studio/overview#scopes): **Project**, **Scene**, **Function**.

## Inputs

| Input             | Type        | Description                                                           |
| ----------------- | ----------- | --------------------------------------------------------------------- |
| *Pulse Input* (►) | **Pulse**   | A standard **Input Pulse**, to trigger the execution of the **Node**. |
| `Input Vector`    | **Vector3** | The **Vector3** to be scaled.                                         |
| `Scale`           | **Float**   | The value by which the **Vector3** will be scaled.                    |

## Outputs

| Output             | Type        | Description                                                                                                                            |
| ------------------ | ----------- | -------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------- |
| *Pulse Output* (►) | **Pulse**   | A standard **Output Pulse**, to move onto the next **Node** along the **Logic Branch**, once this **Node** has finished its execution. |
| `norm`             | **Float**   | The calculated Euclidean norm of the resulting scaled **Vector3**.                                                                     |
| `vector`           | **Vector3** | The resulting scaled **Vector3**.                                                                                                      |
