As always, the selected operation operates with respect to the key
vertex - point 1 remains the same, and the distances from point 1 to
the other points are multiplied by the scale factor. See
hfigeo-scale. What will happen if another scale 0.5 command
is given? The scale operator is an absolute operator. It sets
the scale factor associated with a particular transformation matrix.
It does not multiply the current transformation matrix scale factor by
the new scale factor.
