Umm ok,
My entire workflow is DC, I use the scale tool primarily to configure them and have no problems. My whole workflow is scale tool. So this is not true.
Not sure where you are getting this. DC logic can be complex, if you have math that does not fully resolve it’s a formula problem, not a DC extension problem.
Maybe Floor or Ceiling, or Smallest or Largest functions?
Yes.
No more than the parent DCs… you may be experiencing Unique problems.
Again not my experience. Seems convoluted to add the extra attributes IMO.
Then chances are that one on these is wrong.
What exactly are you doing to normalize the transform? Passing the attributes through a custom attribute? I fail to see how this achieves anything?
I appreciate the post trying to help others, some of the info seems incorrect and misleading though. I wonder what @pcmoor has to say? I played with your DC for a bit, you have some positioning and thickness issues, and some circular logic somewhere. I removed the “safe Len" and allowed it to scale. The jumping behaviour when it scales is because the math does not fully resolve, so every redraw it recalculates to a different size. This is totally fixable without all the extra layering of attributes, and it should work fine with the scale handles when all fixed up. I have some other stuff to do right now but I may mess with this a bit more later if I have time.
