Metric Scale

[Keith Nichols]

First of all I am new at this and need some help. I am taking Cad classes at the local college and have been doing fine until now. My question is, why when I have a drawing in metric do I get a scale factor of 1:1_1 in the layout instead of 1:1?I have tried setting up a templet but something is just not right. I am using size B paper and was wondering if that is having a conflict. Seems like no one else has this problem. I am using Civil and the programs at school are not. Would that have something to do with it? thanx for any help. KN

Type SCALELISTEIDT and check that it isn't a scale that has been added to the list.

If u dont want that scale n ur never guna use it then delete it from the list n create a new 1 in the scale list that suits.

Thanx I will see what happens. I really want it to show 1:1 but the 1:1_1 looks to be the same. I was wondering if it is just showing that it is metric since the paper is in standard english measurements. Thanx KN

Hi, I have just had these types of scales appear in my scales list. Although they deleted ok I dont know how they were created. From reading the thread I can understand what they are but I would like to know what I did to create them so I will know how to deal with it next time.

Thanks.
