wannabe Posted November 26, 2008 Share Posted November 26, 2008 Non-uniformly scaled blocks. Any way i can reconcile the scale of all instances of a block so i can then refedit them all? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
CmdrDuh Posted November 26, 2008 Share Posted November 26, 2008 maybe edit the source and reinsert=itself? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
CmdrDuh Posted November 26, 2008 Share Posted November 26, 2008 I guess my question is why are they non uniform scaled, and after you refedit them, do you have to put them back to non u-scaled? You could process the entire dwg to reset the scale to be uniform, but that would be a global change i think Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
dbroada Posted November 26, 2008 Share Posted November 26, 2008 you could try using BEDIT since you are using 2007. The one disadvantage is you lose sight of the bits around the block you are editing but a couple of construction lines pasted into the editor can often help.

spittle Posted November 26, 2008 Share Posted November 26, 2008 the XREF or block sounds like it has been scaled in your drawing. This should do it: Scale it back to 0 Refedit Re Scale it. Close refedit If it's an XREF, make your you've set UNITS correctly in both your main drawing and XREF. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
dbroada Posted November 26, 2008 Share Posted November 26, 2008 Scale it back to 0probably better to scale to 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
spittle Posted November 26, 2008 Share Posted November 26, 2008 That'll be the one! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
wannabe Posted November 26, 2008 Author Share Posted November 26, 2008 I had a pig of a job to be honest; no to be honest it would be offensively termed. Basically I had to to take some boreholes, trial pits etc from multiple drawings, standardise a lot of the blocks and attributes and then add them to some other drawings whilst retaining geographical accuracy. Let me tell you, a variety of block sizes, shapes etc all with different attribute sizes was just a complete piece of trash. But, when you have contractors, other offices etc it is to be expected. BEDIT was the option I chose in the end. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
