[Pd] Scaling Scalars

[João Miguel Pais]

have you tried "donecanvasdialog $1 -1 0"? (if I understood the problem)  
send that to your patch window, and will change the "X units per pixel"  
field. the next values are for y and show on parent.
I use this to rescale a patch with a ds polygon. only the ds get rescaled,  
other bangs and etc don't. all values remain the same.
