ViviannaDG Design Posted January 22, 2009 Posted January 22, 2009 Hi everybody, can anybody tell me how do I check the scale being used? I got this file from the client, and I dont know how to check in what scale it is. Thanjks!!! Quote
MaxwellEdison Posted January 22, 2009 Posted January 22, 2009 I'd start by checking the settings for UNITS. Then I usually find a dimension and look at its Dim scale value under the Primary Units heading for the dimension's properties. Quote
rkent Posted January 22, 2009 Posted January 22, 2009 Is the drawing done strictly in ModelSpace or also PaperSpace? Quote
Strix Posted January 23, 2009 Posted January 23, 2009 please use descriptive titles when posting questions, not only so as to make them easy for others to search in future, but this forum has software which looks for similar threads and lists them at the bottom of your new one, so you can quickly see if there are old answers to the same problem Quote
skipsophrenic Posted January 23, 2009 Posted January 23, 2009 in paper space select the viewport and in properties window it should tell you what scale the viewport is at. B.T.W. - it's best to start a new thread with each new question:thumbsup: Quote
Tiger Posted January 23, 2009 Posted January 23, 2009 Like Skipso said, please start a new thread with each new question - I've moved this question to it's own thread. And, a suggestion for your question - if no viewport is there, if everything is drawn in Model Space (*shudders* but it happens...) you need to find something in your drawing that you already know the size of, and then it's a matter of measuring and comparing.

MudSkid Posted January 23, 2009 Posted January 23, 2009 i would check the text size and go from there, if your office uses the standard of 3/32" text that is Quote
