    Not sure why it doesn't work.

    The data that is utilized by the renderer is the LocalToWorld matrix component.
    You can use Matrix4x4.TRS(position, rotation, scale) to set the value.

    What is the scale component that you have attached? You don't need to attach anything for the scale. If the scale is different than 1 the conversion workflow will add a NonUniformScale component with whatever you have.

    Thanks for the input guys! i figured it out. an image will not be converted to an entity. how i fixed this was i converted the image to a mesh which can be converted to an entity. once i converted i could then manipulate scale via NonUniformScale
