Well that's why I said "automatically", making dimensions (with distance tool) and scaling manually is not exactly automatic. I tried your method in the video, I never used transform CV tool before so I was curious. But what I found is that it transforms every curve separately, even if my object is grouped, so it doesn't work for me (because my object is actually from 8 curves and not aligned). I assume it worked for you because there was alignment history active.
I noticed there is mouse sensitivity setting in transform CV tool, is that why you used it instead of simple scale/nonProportional scale? Because I don't see any other reasons why would you need transform CV tool.
So just to get this straight, as I understand, using distance tool and just resizing objects manually (while zoomed in a lot to make it easy to get exact number) is the standard way of resizing to exact dimensions? If yes, it's ok, I just wanted to make sure I'm not missing some obvious automatic method every time 🙂
