Destination Rectangles and ScaleShape (3/11/94)

Q: What is a valid destination rectangle for the 2nd argument to ScaleShape?

A: The destination rectangle must be at least 1 pixel wide and 1 pixel high. Each element of the bounds frame must have values that fit in 16 bits, -32768...32767. 0-width/height and negative width/height bounding boxes may appear to work in some cases, but are not supported.
