Hi,
Though not advisable, you can still edit a stencil, with making modifications to the ShapeSheet for the shape.
Drag and drop an entity to the drawing. Select the shape on the drawing and then from the Window Menu > Select Show ShapeSheet
Under the Shape Transform section, remove the guard for the width and type in a value for the width, likewise type in a number for the height
Scroll down to the Protection section. Set LockWidth to 0 and LockHeight to 0
You can notice that you can now resize the entity on the drawing.
Thanks and regards,

Hello all, I am in the process of making an ER Diagram. Now I realize that
the entity stencil is locked. I tried unlocking it to resize it, but did
not work. Anyone have a "CUSTOM" Entity Stencil that will resize using the
arrows at the corner of the stencil? Or a CUSTOM Entity Stencil that looks
exactly like the Master one? I have tried to create one, and realized too
soon that it was an impossible task for me.
THANKS ALOT
Karim
