    Hi David,

    after you make the model editable you find the size in the panel under the viewport so you modify the size and then click apply just make sure that you turn the mode to “model” like in the screenshot below.

    hope that will help

    thanks

    If you mean that the number of segments in the cube was 3 on each side, then you make a loop selection and now you want to change the dimensions, then in the same way as before, you go to the panel below and change the values. You will find two equal values that control the protrusion and atrophy of the segments and other different values that control the width of the selection area as in the screenshots below. I hope I understand well what you are looking for, if there is anything else I will be happy to help you

    Thank you. The problem is caused by the “new” interface I think. I have found a solution by also having open the “Coordinate” window – these are the number I need that disappear from the “Attributes” window the moment an object becomes editable.
