Beyond the Basics Power Stroke shows wrong width after transform

    Hi all, I have a design that I've just scaled up 248%, a certain stroke was correctly scaled from .25mm to .62mm. However, when I try to apply a power stroke to this path, the same width is incorrectly labeled as .25mm again. Is this a bug or am I doing something wrong?

    Technically a Power Stroke is a color filled shape like a „Pattern along Path“ effect.

    Thank you, I did know that - respectfully though I'm not seeing what that has to do with the width of that shape being labeled incorrectly when it's created from a post-transform path? I got it to "work" (albeit still slightly inaccurately) by applying an 0.4 width multiplier to each Power Stroke, but surely there's a better way? It's important in my work that I be able to set minimum and maximum widths of tapered strokes accurately.
