How to locate and restore original size of scaled symbols?

$

If a symbol is added to a schematic the user has the option to scale the symbol.  This keeps the symbol origin on grid, but shifts everything else, including the pins, to an off grid location making for sloppy editing and inconsistent documentation.  If I replace the symbol with one from our current library, the scale factor is retained and the replaced symbol is also scaled.  I would like to be able to A- identify other than visually which parts are scaled (based on having to replace them one at a time) and/or change ALL the scaled components on a schematic back to their original size.  Mentor has a nice "Reposition Properties" and "Reset Text Properties" option for their symbols but nothing about "Reset Size". 

 

Mentor Support says they would be happy to help me fix an issue with their software by writing a script if I want to pay them for it but since we already pay over $15,000 a year in support, I don't think so.

 

 

Any ideas?
