You might need to be a bit more specific. A 2D GDL Object (Library part) or a something you've drawn in 2D?

Select the lines (or whatever)

Edit > Reshape > Resize

then either define graphically or enter a ratio or percentage.

Hope that helps.

I think the confusion about your question was because in Archicad "object" refers to something placed with the Object Tool, like a beam, a toilet, or a chair.

Some of these Objects work with the resize command differently than others. For example, a W-beam does not resize because its dimensions are hard-coded based on the size beam you selected.

If you want to generally refer to lines, walls, objects, slabs, etc., the Archicad term is "elements."
