+
+        Default behavior is to scale about the center of the vmobject.
+
+        Parameters
+        ----------
+        scale_factor
+            The scaling factor :math:`\alpha`. If :math:`0 < |\alpha| < 1`, the mobject
+            will shrink, and for :math:`|\alpha| > 1` it will grow. Furthermore,
+            if :math:`\alpha < 0`, the mobject is also flipped.
+        scale_stroke
+            Boolean determining if the object's outline is scaled when the object is scaled.
+            If enabled, and object with 2px outline is scaled by a factor of .5, it will have an outline of 1px.
+        kwargs
+            Additional keyword arguments passed to
