Limit Scale Constraint

The Limit Scale constraint applies a lower and/or upper bound to an object or bone’s scale along each axis.

Important

While it’s possible to set limits of 0 or less, these will not work correctly and should be avoided.

Limit Scale constraint.

Minimum/Maximum X, Y, Z

The number fields determine the boundaries for each axis. The checkboxes determine whether each boundary applies.

Note

If a Minimum is higher than the corresponding Maximum, the constraint uses the Maximum for both.

Affect Transform

When the owner is manually scaled, restrict not just its visual scale but also its Scale in the Properties Editor’s Transform panel.

Owner

The space for determining and limiting the scale of the owner.

Influence

How strongly the constraint affects the owner.
