I have tried rescaling and also manually editing the polygons but it�??s not working. Surely there must be a better way. Anyone know the magic tool?</SPAN><BR /><BR /><SPAN>I want to preserve the shape of these polygons so buffer won�??t work here.</SPAN><BR /><BR /><SPAN>Many thanks!</SPAN></BODY></HTML> Mon, 19 Nov 2012 08:33:52 GMT https://community.esri.com/t5/data-management-questions/increase-the-polygon-size-by-a-given-area/m-p/112043#M6420 TopMap 2012-11-19T08:33:52Z Re: Increase the polygon size by a given area https://community.esri.com/t5/data-management-questions/increase-the-polygon-size-by-a-given-area/m-p/112044#M6421 <HTML><HEAD></HEAD><BODY><SPAN>How did you rescale those polygons?</SPAN><BR /><SPAN>There's a hidden Scale editing tool where you can enter specific scale factor.</SPAN><BR /><SPAN>To access this tool click Customize menu -&gt; Customize mode.
