problems fitting on screen...


Recommended Posts

Posted

Hello there!

I am having an issue with being able to fit my drawing onto my screen, i am trying to draw a 1:10 slope as a base to a west elevation drawing but i can't fit this on my screen, my brief for my project is to draw everything up in 1:1 but i can print off in one of the traditional scales 1:10, 1:20, 1:200 etc Sorry if this is a very simple question but i had a look at your FAQ in this section and couldn't see a solution to my problem, i saw the press crtl + 1 and change linetype scale but i thought that this would change the scale from 1:1 which is required.

 

Cheers, Helsinki

Zooming out with the scroll on the mouse is not the same as executing the command ZOOM then hitting E for Extents.

 

Limits are changed by typing LIMITS and then setting new limits. (bottom left corner and top right corner)

They even wrote a song for Tiger! Eye of the Tiger!

 

"Risin' up, back on the street

Did my time, took my chances

Went the distance, now I'm back on my feet

Just a man and his will to survive

 

So many times, it happens too fast

You change your passion for glory

Don't lose your grip on the dreams of the past

You must fight just to keep them alive"
