These options allow you to customise the behaviour of the Modify Scale function by selecting which annotative entity types will have their text size/arrow size/pattern size scaled.

In addition, you can also specify whether the dimension values (measurements) are retained (fixed to their current value), or scaled (updated to reflect the actual measurement after scaling).
