How do I make a shape smaller than the handles allow?

[wolfv]

I am trying to make an UML-usecase actor smaller. One inch is the smallest
the actor can get by dragging the handles. I need an actor half that size.
How can I make the actor smaller than the handles allow?

Thank you.

This shape is specially design to have default value in width an height.
What you can do is modify the default value.

Select the actor shape and open the shapesheet "Window=>ShapeSheet".
Go to the user defined cells section.
Modify the User.DefaultWidth and the User.DefaultHeight as needed.
