Scaling shell thickness

I understand that I can use the scale panel to scale components to change the units, but is there an easy way to scale the shell thickness of 2D elements?  Or in other words, to change the thickness in the properties for a shell section?

 

Thank you.

    Hello,

     

    i think you have to do it by script, if you want to scale all at the same time.

    I don't know if I get it true, but if I do, it is so easy. 

     

    Just right click on the related property, and choose card edit. You can change the thickness by clicking T value and inserting a new number.
