    ^ I never knew the name of the very right scaler: It's not even shown in the docs ( https://docs.unity3d.com/Manual/PositioningGameObjects.html ) or I'm looking in the wrong spot.

    What is the difference between these two scalers? I can't find the right keyword to search for (I assumed that hovering over the icon would show a tooltip of the name). For UI, I'm getting sort of messed up stuff for accidentally using some of each:

    For example, both text fields have the same scale, yet one has 32 font size and the other has 16, yet they are identical in size. Confusing~ I know it has to do something with the last one being a "different" type of scale, but that's all.

    That said,

    1) What is the name of the very right scaler? (a link would do - same with below)
    2) What does the very right scaler do?
    3) left scale vs right scale?
