I can scale it down on an IA64. My steps: Create new image Add text select text (select all, cut, paste) Right click -Tools -Transform Tools - Transform Click on the image/text to be resized Move the grid as desired (scale it up or down) Click on "Scale" button. It works. Also, Rotation, Shearing and Prespective tools work too.

crutcher - you had the scaling tool in corrective mode, which is used for fixing shear in photos, etc.
