grain Posted March 16, 2014 Share Posted March 16, 2014 Using the Page Setup Manager I set a page size of A1 landscape. When I scale my model in Model space to 1:20 (a small bathroom drawn metric 2m wide) it appears about 4 times too big. What could I be doing wrong. The units in model space is metric. It was initially working but somehow I must have reset something. Any thoughts really appreciated. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

grain Posted March 16, 2014 Author Share Posted March 16, 2014 Thanks 'Remark' i've just come across your advice to ensure the scale is set to 1mm = 1 unit in the Page Setup Manager. Solved! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
