This custom handler will scale a vertex list directly. The power of it is demonstrated if you have ever tried the generateOutlines() undocumented command with a font member. It works in conjunction with this method to get around the size limiation all vectorshapes have because generateOutlines() returns a vertexList which is not affected by the limitation (only the member is). So, if you scale the vertexList first then you can set it to a vector shape member.

on scaleVectorShape vertList, vScale   vScale = vScale / 100.0   vertList = vertList * vScale   aItem = [#newCurve] * vScale      repeat while True     vertList[vertList.getOne(aItem)] = [#newCurve]     if vertList.getOne(aItem) = 0 then exit repeat   end repeat      return vertList end
