Pdmode - Pdsize

[armenta_43]

Anyone out there that can help me figure out a mystery?

I am working with Acad version 07 and I have inserted some points (PDMODE 34/PDSIZE 5).

For some reason, now that I try and insert a point, it is so small you can't see it. I keep trying different sizes & styles but nothing works.

I aso tried regen with no success...bummer.

what units are you using? a PDSIZE of 5 gives a point of a fixed size of 5 CAD units. perhaps you are drawing at very large scale, like a map or something which will make 5 CAD units very miniscule depending on your units

I am using Milimeters

[nocturne00]

By saying Millimeters do you mean your INSUNITS are set to [4] or are you drawing objects with 1000 CAD units is to 1 Meter?

My Insertion scale is in Milimeters...unsure what you mean by INSUNITS

Have you tried to change to size to something ridiculous, say 1000000, to see if that makes a difference ?

try -5, a negative size will keep the point a relative percentage to the zoom factor.

yep also on my mind, since pdsize of 5 is a fixed size, its very very small if you are working on a very large scale drawing.

Thanks, if the dimension style on the toolbar is saying ISO-25 would this cause the Node to be smaller?

Would DDPTYPE help here at all?
