Enlarge a part

Hi,
Is there a way to enlarge a part? The scale does not work, as it scales from the selected point. It is OK for convex shapes, but it does not work for concave ones...
Thanks,

It sounds like you might want to try the thicken feature with the "add" option, but yes, the best way to get help is to provide a link to a public document (bonus points for providing a link to a version -- that way subsequent edits don't change it).Ilya Baran \ VP, Architecture and FeatureScript \ Onshape Inc5

i'm sure that if you need linear scale then scale feature should work. if something else like non-linear transform - you would better provide an example

Thicken, of course! Thanks.
In fact, I was not looking for scaling, but for offsetting. Sorry for the mistake...0
