Hi Nyall,

Thanks for adding more info on this.  It would be really nice to have an AutoCad like feature for this type of vector transformation.  Basically, you start with selecting the features you want to move, click on the origin of  the selected features, click and where you want the features to be translated, then click for the scale and angle.  You can also write the parameters manually.

Just a thought... Cheers!

Nicolas

I have created a polygon shape file with CRS of EPSG:4326-WGS 84. I ran the 
v.transform Tool on this polygon by increasing the xscale to 1.5 and yscale to 
1.5. I see a polygon generated. But, this is not falling on top of the original 
polygon. It is falling in completely in a different location i.e beyond the map 
limits. What should I do to have this fall at the right location?
This tool literally just takes the coordinates in the features and
scales them by the value -- so a vertex at 30.5, 70 will scale to 70,
140 if you scale with 2/2 scaling values. (In other words, it will
appear to move). To scale around a center point you'd need to
translate the feature back to the origin, scale it, and then translate
back to its original location.
