Hi gang,

 

I need to scale about five hundred objects randomly along their y. Normaly this would be a breeze, just select all the objects and type

 

r(0.5,1) into there local kine scaley.

 

But for some reason I can't do that, infact typing any random or linear _expression_ into a text field results in the annoying windows error beep thing. Any ideas why this doesn't seem to work?
