Is it impossible?

Trying to do it, to resize my 20x20x.5 to 20x20x2 or so... but keeps popping back down...

Am I just retarded?

And I wasn't sure if this is building or scripting related or what, so I posted it here

I have a small collection of big prims, but when I try to change the shapes of them I can, but when I try to change the demensions, I can't.

I don't believe there is a megaprim that can be resized. So no, you are not retarded.

Nope, my megaprims can't be resized. I think that's the norm.

there's limit code on the servers...

if change in size > 10m: fail
if new size > 10m: fail


you can sometimes get the server to show the prim as 10m in the edit window, but it has no effect....

path cut and profile cut are your friends

Also, bits can be chopped off by first turning it into a Sphere and using 'Dimple', and then turning it back to a box or whatever.

Because megaprims can't be resized, my friend Paola Delpaso tried to collect all the useful ones (i.e. <100 m). She is offering them as a freebie package in her Sky Dungeon:

Megaprims can't usually be resized... unless you make them 10 10 10
...which kinda defeats the purpose.
