Appreciate it Martin, now it’s clicking for me.
Just a little ramble: So the reason we can scale up an instanced mesh (in Object Mode) and have the distance between vertices remain the same, BUT, appear larger, would be then because the coordinate system is what is being stretched? Kinda like a stretchy fabric.
This would then imply that the “Object’s Coordinate System” is local and unique to each Object. May seem self evident but it just made sense to me now.
This took me back to the YT tutorial “Why you should always apply your scale!” I saw that video and did it, but no idea why I was doing it (I don’t like that).
Again, thanks for the clarification.
P.S
Omar & Grady, I appreciate the suitcase analogy; it works in practice but it wasn’t working for me in theory.
