custom viewport scale

[domer1322]

suddenly I can't seem to change the custom scale numbers in the OIP for selected viewports. When I select "custom" (instead of the default scale values) I get a number (384) that i can't change. Any suggestions ?

OK .... bad post ..... honestly, I tried it about 10 times without success. Then immediately after I made the post above I tried it again and it worked as advertised. Glad it worked, but I am mystified.

There is something not quite with viewport scales but I can't put my finger on it and cannot reproduce to send a bugsubmit. I was looking at a viewport which I knew was 1:200 but the oip said 1:200 in custom (but was greyed out so I could not change) and incorrectly 1:100 as the scale. Its not the first time I have seen this. Luckily I put a scale bar and title in the viewport annotation so could see that it was not as it should have been.

I have run into this as well, no rhyme or reason I can discern as to why it happens. I can select built in scales, but I cannot enter a custom. Usually exiting VW and reopening the drawing will fix it, but it is frustrating when it happens.

Could it be the OIP is burning up?

I've run into an issue where a the OIP for an active group suddenly stops showing it's Delta x and Delta y fields.
