Scale And Palettes

[Jabaker]

Hi all,

 

I have a number of dynamic blocks which i use reguarly, currently I have these on a single drawing which I import and scale dependant to the current drawing.

 

I want to move these blocks into a palette and i have done so i created a palette for each of the common scales i use and saved an original drawwing scaled off to the same scale then imported the 1:500 blocks into the 1:500 titled palette and same for the 1:100, 1:200 & 1:250 ect

 

however when i uses these blocks from the pallet the blocks come out so very tiny anyone have any idea where i am going wrong

 

Kind regards J.B

you don't need to make a tool palette for each scale... You can do as we do... just work according to dimscales... you can add the property to insert the blocks from the tool palette according to the current dimscale (go to each block icon in the tool palette... then right click ... on properties... auxiliary scale... and select dimscale.. whatever your dimscale is set in your drawing that will be the x,y,z factor scale of the pulled block (from the tool palette).

 

You just need to make sure to make the tool palette from a drawing for 1:1 scale and have each block created unitless and with the correct size.. and that's all.. just one tool palette.
