Is there a way to adjust the scale of a sketch proportionally?

Hi there, I am working on a sketch that I have imported into Onshape from a .dxf file. When I imported the sketch, it was not to scale even when making sure to have the millimeters option selected. I have made the desired modifications to it and now I wish to make sure that the dimensions of the sketch are correct. My question is: If I set a measurement constraint on one part of the sketch, making that part the correct size, can I then tell Onshape to adjust the proportions of the rest of the sketch so that I end up with everything in the correct scale? Or would I have to manually set the dimensions for every part of the sketch myself?

Thanks for your help.

    the whole sketch should scale if you have only one dimension. Make the modification to that dimension and the rest should follow

    You can also scale after extruding if you like that approach as well
