Viewports coming in at strange scale from DWG
Christiaan replied to Christiaan's question in Troubleshooting
You're definitely right that it's the page setup that matters. Changing page setup to Arch D before importing changed the Viewport scale, but now it's 1:87.927! 🤣 I'll see if I can reverse engineer it in the morning and create a custom page size to pull it in at the right scale. Thanks for pointing me in the right direction Pat. -

Their border, correctly scaled measures 804 x 580 mm (31.65 x 22.83 inches). -

Must be right? But it can't be ASME D, that makes it even worse. -

No, only for model space. -
Viewports coming in at strange scale from DWG
Christiaan replied to Christiaan's question in Troubleshooting
Seems to me the only option I've got is to manually scale everything on each Sheet Layer. Fortunately they're all incorrect by the same proportion (3.72%), so I can just select everything on each Sheet and scale by 0.9628 -
No, I don't think so. I checked the notes and there's no mention of railing tool changes in Update 2.

I'm importing DWG drawings and I've verified that the information on the design layers is the correct size, so I have the units correct (mm), but the Sheet Layer Viewports are at a weird scale and don't fit correctly within the Sheet border. For instance I end up with a Viewport which should be at 1:100 coming in as 1:96.280 instead. Have a feeling I've come across this in the past but can't remember how I resolved it. It's quite a few files, with other objects on the Sheets involved, so I don't want to correct them manually if I can help it.

In order to get the popup to appear you may need to check, uncheck then check again, if some but not all of the Classes are already set to Use at Creation.- 4 replies

We need some more info. Can you post some screenshots or a screen-recording demonstrating the problem? And/or the file?

Brilliant, thanks Juan, I knew you'd get there eventually. I'll check all your changes later today.

Okay, thanks Tom. I'll see if we can get that extended or some other solution. In the mean time I can edit it for you @_James -

Yes it's native Window object (with a separate hybrid object for the external and internal sills) -

I think I'm right in saying that we can't do something like this with Wall Closures? We can only do one of these: -

Notes Manager / General Notes / Callouts Suggestions
Christiaan replied to _James's question in Wishlist - Feature and Content Requests
I'd also like this behaviour when copying and pasting Callouts across layers: -
I'd like an option when copying and pasting a Callout for the first time in a file for a pop-up to ask: Would you like this Callout to: A. Remain associated with the Keynote it's currently associated to. B. Associate to a Keynote on the layer being pasted to or generate a new Keynote if none currently exists. [with a choice of existng Keynotes available on the current layer] Remember my choice in this file. If the user chooses option B and 'remember my choice', from that point onwards: Callouts will automatically be associated with a Keynote on the layer being pasted to if there is just one Keynote object. If there are multiple Keynotes on the layer being pasted to a popup would appear asking the user which Keynote they want the Callouts to be associated to. When copying and pasting a Callout on the same layer (i.e. without moving it to a separate layer) it would simply stay associated with its current Keynote. I almost never use workflow A, which is the current default behaviour. The only question is should this behaviour also be triggered when using the OIP to move Callouts from one layer to another. I think not in this case. They should just remain associated with their current Keynote by default. I wouldn't want popups appearing when moving objects between layers using the OIP. And I when I do keep Callouts and Keynotes on different layers the OIP is probably what I'd use. What do you think?

@_James can you remove number 4 from your list? We use Note Descriptions as described here https://forum.vectorworks.net/index.php?/topic/99252-notes-manager-general-notes-callouts-suggestions/#comment-458702
