For scaling you will need another tool: Draft Scale

The rest can be done using the Transform tool mentioned above or add-on Manipulator Workbench.

Thank you very much, interestingly transform works only for primitive objects but not for ArchPrecast objects which was my actually intentions. Any work around to make it work for ArchPrecast objects as well?
