# scaleY(to:duration:)

Creates an action that changes the y scale value of a node to a new value.

## Declaration

```swift
class func scaleY(to scale: CGFloat, duration: TimeInterval) -> SKAction
```

## Parameters

- `scale`: The new value for the node’s y scale value.
- `duration`: The duration of the animation.

## Return Value

Return Value A new action object.

## Discussion

Discussion When the action executes, the node’s yScale property animates to the new value. This action is not reversible; the reverse of this action has the same duration but does not change anything.
