Grab the side handles rather than the corner rectangles if resizing directly. If you hold CTRL while doing so it will resize from the center of the shape.
Use the Numeric Edits toolbar to adjust width or height. Use the 9-dot selection in Numeric Edits toolbar to determine position from which the resize will occur.
I think I misunderstood the problem with the #1 line. I understand that to the be first line which I assumed was top. After reading @Dskallâs comment Iâm reconsidering that #1 refers to the line associated with the 1 mark.
While possible to scale along one dimension of the rotated shape itâs not particularly straightforward unless the shape is still a rectangle primitive. If so, use width in Shape Properties window to adjust the size. However, those values can often get out of sync with the actual shape size under certain situations. Itâs likely faster/easier to recreate the shape.
Here is another strategy for making things easy to align and allow for experimentation:
Create all 3 marker styles at the 12 oâclock position. Align, size, and position them as you would like them to appear.
Create the circular array for every line position with the short line
Create the circular array for every desired position for the medium line
Create the circular array for every desired position for the long line
Select all shapes, then weld them so that overlapping shapes merge together.
