The dropdowns only offer scale factors for downscaling.
Then, in the corresponding dropdown, or in the number entry field, select or enter the scale you would like to use. To do so, first select if you want to use a metric scale factor (based on mulitples of 5) or an imperial one (based on multiples of 2) or if you would like to enter your own scale factor. If you intend to print the drawing, and the original object is bigger than the sheet, consider using a scale factor. Select the unit you used (for your 10.50 m house, select m for your 10 cm cardboard box, select cm). Enter the length of the line you just drew, as it is in the real world (for example, if your house wall is 10.5 m long, enter 10.50. Open the extension dialog: Extensions -> Scaling -> RealScale. Select the line, then add the drawing to the selection. Draw a straight line that connects two points in that drawing of which you know the distance in real life (for example, if you know how long a wall of your house in the drawing is, draw the line from one end of the wall to the other). Make sure it is a single object (group it, if necessary). into Inkscape or open a file containing one. Import an architectural drawing / floor plan / map /. 
In this case, use the file whose name ends with 0.48 and rename it to realscale.inx. If you are using Inkscape 0.48, it may happen that the extension crashes the program when you open it, due to a bug in that Inkscape version. Installation:Ĭopy the files realscale.py and realscale.inx into the directory indicated inĮdit -> Preferences -> System: User extensions Inkscape extension for Inkscape 0.48 and 0.91 that allows for quick resizing of (architectural) drawings by indicating a line and its length in real world units and can optionally scale the drawing with a specific scale factor and draw a scale rule. For the current one, visit the new repository. This is an archived version of the extension.
