For italian people: come funziona?
1. Timeline>Update —> Set Relative Scale 3D: esegue un update continuo di Set Relative Scale 3D ad ogni fotogramma
2. Timeline>Pulsing —> New Scale: fornisce il valore variabile nel tempo
3. Set Relative Scale 3D>Target —> Static Mesh 1: setta la scala di Static Mesh 1
