Help to scale a dwg

[scoot3r]

Hello, I'm new to CAD, I have a question, I have two separate DWG drawings, they are scaled differently and I want to import the one DWG into the other DWG and of course I need the scale on each to be the same. How can I scale the one to match the other? Thank you very much in advance.

The drawings should already be the same scale in model space ? ie 1:1, its only when you put them into paper space they are scaled

You can use the align command instead.

 

Command: align

Specify first source point: HERE SELECT ONE POINT OF OBJ 1

Specify first destination point: HERE SELECT CORRESPONDING POINT ON OBJ-2

Specify second source point:HERE SELECT ONE MORE POINT OF OBJ 1

Specify second destination point:HERE SELECT CORRESPONDING POINT ON OBJ-2

Specify third source point or :

Scale objects based on alignment points? [Yes/No] : y

 

immediately after this use the move command

"MOVE " and hit enter

then say "p" (previous)

& move the selected objects sufficient far from the other.

Sounds like a basic math problem to me. You do know both scales right?

If you know both scale,ie 1:50 and 1:100.

When you want to match 1:100 to 1:50, you need to type in SC >select the dwg> 2 factor.
