Try the transformation panel (Shift+Ctrl+M).

Hmm never thought of drawing without a mouse in inkscape.
Does it really work?

p.s. Now it goes, I forgot first to SELECT FIRST!!! THAT was the main mistake!!!
But sometimnes it still "stopps" itself, while scaling f.e., and I am not sure why, probably my pc...

Thanks all!
