  • scale(x, y=None):

    Scales the canvas units by x horizontally and by y vertically. If y is None, it is set to the same value as x. Both parameters are real numbers. Values that are smaller than 1.0 reduce the unit size and values above 1.0 increase the unit size. Values of 1.0 leave the units the same size.
