RegionResize

RegionResize[reg,l]

resize the region reg to have the first side length l preserving side length ratios.

RegionResize[reg,{lmax}]

resize into a box with maximum side length lmax preserving side length ratios.

RegionResize[reg,{l1,l2,}]

resize into a box with side lengths li.

RegionResize[reg,{{x1,min,x1,max},{x2,min,x2,max},}]

resize into a box with corners {x1,min,x2,min,} and {x1,max,x2,max,}.

Details

  • RegionResize is used to resize a region in ways that either preserve the shape or distort the shape.
  • The side lengths li can be any of:
  • Automaticautomatically determined side length
    Allthe original side length
    Scaled[s]fraction s of the original side length
    numnum side length
    {num}at most num side length
  • RegionResize[reg,l] is equivalent to RegionResize[reg,{l,Automatic,}].
  • RegionResize[reg,{l}] is equivalent to RegionResize[reg,{{l},{l},}].
