    Default LTScale

    Registered forum members do not see this ad.

    Hi everyone,

    I am working on a floorplan and I'm having difficulties with LTScale.
    The attached drawing has an overall ltscale of 20. The hidden lines along the top of the drawing have a ltscale of 5.5 which I set using the properties box.
    It took me a while to get the center(magenta) and hidden lines to look right but I finally got it using these settings.

    The problem is when I switch to paperspace the lineweights are all screwed up. They all appear solid.

    Any help and suggestions are welcome.

    Thanks

    Check your PSLTSCALE setting. That way the lineweights will stay the same in paper and model space.

    It's set to one. Is this correct?

    This is the kind of oblique stuff that can drive a person nuts.

    I created a fixstuff.lsp file that I put it all in.

    I run it once on every drawing file and they all act the same then. All I have to do is set the dimscale of the file and the lisp does the rest.
