Fusion
Hello,
I am trying to scale down a design of mine but I am not able to go below 0.00 as shown in the pic. I have imported this .DXF file from AutoCAD and want to scale it down but can't. Please help 
!!
Hi @SUD85,
It's possible that it may be because of your geometry, but without seeing the model for myself it is hard to speculate. My initial thought is that when scaling that model down some of the corners may intersect or have issues, but I could be wrong. It looks like you are using the slider to adjust the scale value. Just curious, what happens when you type in a value of say 1/10. Does that work? If not, can you please share your model with me so I can take a closer peek. My email is james.youmatz@autodesk.com.
Thanks,

Why do you want to go below zero, scaling by 0.5 would half the size 0.1 would make it 10x smaller. Some programs allow minus scaling but that just makes a mirror image.

@HughesTooling Wow, great point that I completely overlooked! Shame on me haha. Even though he explicitly stated he can't go below zero, in my mind I'm thinking, he wants to scale below 1. Great catch!
@SUD85, as previously stated, if you want to scale it smaller than its normal size (for example 1/10 = .1) try those! Should work now!

If you mean 25.4% then it would be 0.254
