Since rooms 1.0 has the ruler tool (which I’ve actually found very helpful in some cases) it would be really nice to have it in rooms 2.0.
But perhaps there’s a better way than scaling components, I propose a toggle in your makerpen menu to display a value on the object your are scaling to show how much it’s been scaled by on that axis. It could additionally show the difference while you scale the object (this way you can accurately scale something an additional 1 meter.)
In the move tool, it can simply show the difference of its position from where it started on that axis and also show it’s position on that axis relative to the container or the world.
There could be multiple settings for this such as:
“Show measuring units whilst transforming shapes”
Slider for: “metric, imperial”
Slider for relative space: “world, parent container”
Quick depiction of how I imagined it may look.
