Sizing a multi selection of sprites in 3.6.6

[laurentl]

I have N sprites which I want to scale up. Is the scale tool a no-no in 3.6.6?
The handles + shift don't proportionally scale the things and multi selection and handles don't work so I want to check the new workflow. (post 2.7.9)

And in the same vein, multi selection don't translate together when using handle translation or translation tool (the translation tool used to work somewhat in 2.7.0)

If you want to move widgets together, consider making them a child of the same game object. You can then either use that object's transform gizmo, or put UIWidgetContainer script on it that will let you use handles. You can also disable NGUI's handles via NGUI -> Options.

As for scaling the object... you can scale it, why not?
