    44By the way, I don't know if it counts as a bug or not but hidden surfaces (the result of doing surf sel  and then ~surf​) are still exported.

    25  What export format do you want to scale?  X3D?  Adding it to one format is
    26  of course easier than adding it to 5.  The X3D has custom_x3d() methods
    27  that models can use to output geometry -- Structure uses that.  That
    28  method would need the scale factor.
    29 
    30  I guess you can import each of your 10 models one at a time, scale it,
    31  then export it in Blender.  Then work with suitably scaled models.
    32  Tedious, and a I agree it would be nice to do the scaling as the model is
    33  export from ChimeraX.  But I am not sure the rare use of this puts its
    34  priority above many other things we need to work on.
