Linetype issue


Recommended Posts

Hello. I have 2 drawings with same MSLT,PSLT,LT scales set to 1, visretain to 0, and same line types and scales for my elements (lintels). However in Drawing 1 paperspace the line is dashed, and in Drawing 2 it looks continuous. Please advice.Thanks in advance.

What are your annotative scales?

 

Linetypes will change if you have MSLT, PSLT and LT scales set to 1 and different annotative scales.

 

Also I'd set visretain to 1 otherwise changes you make to x-ref dependent layers will not be remembered and neither will layers you freeze or turn off.

I am using 1:50 scale for my viewports. Is this what you mean by anno scale? Both drawings are 1:50 scale in paperspace. Thank you for reply. Gotta experiment with visretain

The viewport scale tells the drawing what scale to use and the annotative scale only affects the text, dimensions, multileaders and hatches that you have made annotative meaning you can have some of these turn off at different scales. I may have misused the term in my first post.

 

You can also set the scale in your model space and it doesn't have to be the same as the paperspace so watch out for that.

 

Don't forget to regenall maybe REA as a keyboard alias. This forces the lines in viewports to regenarate.
