allegro_joel Posted March 9, 2005 Share Posted March 9, 2005 Tell me if I am missing something obvious? How come all the scales on a common architectural scale ruler aren?t available when picking a scale in VW? 3/8 and 3/16 are fairly common on drawing I receive from architects. Quote Link to comment
Travis Posted March 9, 2005 Share Posted March 9, 2005 allegro, You can easily set Design Layer scales to anything you like by typing in the exact ratio (there are 48 1/4"-increments in a foot; 32 3/8"-increments; 64 of them if they're only 3/16" long). Interestingly, those scales ARE available in the Viewport OIP (there's even 3/32"), even though they're not "default" for Design Layers. Since you're likely to use Viewports to set your final "printing" scale, this should satisfy your need. Although it's recommended the design layers be set to the same scale used for final output, I've not had any problem using 1/4" or 1/2" scale designs output at 3/16" to 3/8". Good luck, [ 03-09-2005, 09:59 AM: Message edited by: Travis ] Quote Link to comment
