lula Posted January 28, 2009 Share Posted January 28, 2009 My viewports show all the annotation scales set for my Dimensions, I have annotated dimensions of 1:200 & 1:100 in my drawing some I want to show in a scaled viewport of 1:200 and others in a viewport of 1:100 but when I create the viewport for 1:200 it shows both sets what is happening. Not had this problem before in other drawings Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
efo Posted January 28, 2009 Share Posted January 28, 2009 create 2 paper space for each of your drawing,or use one layout make it 2 viewports,set your scale each of viewports and make sure your viewport is locked. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
ammobake Posted January 28, 2009 Share Posted January 28, 2009 This is the exact reason I do not even tinker with annotation scales. If you put all the annotations on one layer you can still turn off all the annotations whenever you want. I have one text,dim, & multileader style that I use in model space. I have one text, dim, & multileader style that I use in paper space. If I need to put dimensions, text, or multileaders in paper space, it's as simple as dropping it in and changing the height to the exact height I need. If I put in 3/16" text, the text will always be 3/16".. If I put in dimensions with 6" text, the text will always be 6". By doing that I can completely avoid having to mess with manually altering properties, annotation scales, dimscales, or any of that. Gotta keep it as simple as possible. Autocad is complicated enough already. IMHO. -ChriS Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
