Door/window ID bubble shape scaling

[wvancampen]

Please confirm that door/window ID bubble shapes do not change scale if you change the scale of the viewport they appear in.

Eg, I have a design layer plan created at 1/4" scale. On a sheet layer I want to show that plan in a viewport at 1/2" scale. All the ID bubble shapes and their labels appear twice as big--which makes sense, but I want them to appear at their original size. So in Advanced Viewport Properties I set Text Scale to .5. The ID labels change back to their original size but the shapes do not and remain and their enlarged size.

How do I reduce the shapes' size?

Here is a suggestion.

I have run into the same aspect on some of my projects. Until VW presents the opportunity to assign a class to ID text and another class to the bubble the temporal work around is this:

1- Assign a class to the object ID ( look into object info > data > ID class )

2 - Your objects should present the ID text but select no bubbles, just plain text for ID

3 - Create your own symbol bubbles, one for 1/4" and other for 1/2", put them in classes

4 - On your final sheet, 1/4" viewports may show your symbol bubbles

5- Use your viewports advance properties and change the text hgts as needed. At a 1/2" hide your bubbles and place new one as annotations.

I'll dig more into this and I'll see if we can find a better solution.
