A user in a facebook group posted this image. When the mouse hovers over ia little popup appears "Set vertical scale"- I honestly don't know what that means. Why not just use the percentage?

Glenn, I can't say that I have ever used the Scale tool before. I tried to reproduce your screenshot, but couldn't. It looks to me like the s has been truncated from some other unit of measure. Judging by your image screenshot, it is inches.

The bottom image is from my screenshot of pse 2025. I can put the s in there when rescaling- it asppears to do the exact same thing as percentage. I rarely use the scale option, it's one of those things I just never need. Making random image size changes by dragging one of the corners does change that S value- but it appears to not be proportinal when compared to using the typical percentage value.
