# Scale
## `scale`
Scales content without affecting layout.
Lets you mirror content by specifying a negative scale on a single axis.
# Example
```example
#set align(center)
#scale(x: -100%)[This is mirrored.]
#scale(x: -100%, reflow: true)[This is mirrored.]
```
## Parameters
### factor
The scaling factor for both axes, as a positional argument. This is just
an optional shorthand notation for setting `x` and `y` to the same
value.
### x
The horizontal scaling factor.
The body will be mirrored horizontally if the parameter is negative.
### y
The vertical scaling factor.
The body will be mirrored vertically if the parameter is negative.
### origin
The origin of the transformation.
### reflow
Whether the scaling impacts the layout.
If set to `{false}`, the scaled content will be allowed to overlap
other content. If set to `{true}`, it will compute the new size of
the scaled content and adjust the layout accordingly.
### body *(required)*
The content to scale.
## Returns
- content
