The use of scaling in the tikzpicture environment, one question:
Given two points A and B which has the |AB| = n (the length of the line between A and B) before scaling (i.e. scale=1), then I thought that with scale = 0.5, we should have that |AB| = n/2. But, I have generated picturers where this seem not to be the case. Any comments?

scaling in tikz
Hi Kent!
Can you show us an example, where it is not the case, so we can check that?
By the way, for proper and complete scaling you may have to add another option: [..., scale=0.5, transform shape].

The option transform shape created some surprising results. (At least for me.)
However, after looking into the matter more closely, I realized that the problem is not PGF/Tikz, but rather the \includegraphics options used.
