Returns the scale of the region.

scale = Region:GetScale()
effectiveScale = Region:GetEffectiveScale()

Returns

scale

number - The scale of the region.

effectiveScale

number - The effective scale after propagating from the parent region. This is equal to f:GetScale() * f:GetParent():GetScale()

Example

Scale propagates from a region to its children, unless disabled with SetIgnoreParentScale.

local parent = CreateFrame("Frame")
parent:SetScale(0.5)

local f = CreateFrame("Frame", nil, parent)
f:SetScale(0.5)
print(f:GetScale())          -- 0.5
print(f:GetEffectiveScale()) -- 0.25

f:SetIgnoreParentScale(true)
print(f:GetEffectiveScale()) -- 0.5

Patch changes

Patch 8.0.1 (2018-07-17): Texture, FontString and Line can now be scaled directly using the newly added SetScale, GetScale and GetEffectiveScale functions
