Is it possible to put a scale for everything that is on the "x" axis? and an another scale for every thing that is on the "y" axis?

Using map 2012 3D , my mapbook template looks good when I open it up in the template file but when I use it in an existing mapbook the scale is double and is off center.
View 4 Replies View Relatedi have a template, created a viewport and fit the model view in the layout space. However, when i scale the template... the viewport model doesn't follows the layout scale. Is there any ways to fit it so that when i scale the template i don't have to set the view again.

I new to using the view frame groups we do allot of double plan view 11x17 sheets using an alignment on top of MrSid aerial drawings. It is very time consuming to setup the viewports along the alignment doing the old fashion method of copying the page setup and sliding the model space along the alignment for the next sheet. I understand the plan profile and cross section methods of creating multiple sheets and how the viewframe group works for those type of sheets. I'm just not sure how to create a dwt template for one plan view on top of another plan on the same sheet with to viewports. I know I'm not the only person that creates road cl double planviews when your not concerned about a profile.

I want to keep the view the same but changed the "scale" of the view/perspective
I used to be able to double click on an image in Loupe view in Library mode and I would zoom into that image. I think that stopped when I got to LR5, I'm in 5.3 now. Now when I double click in Loupe view, I'm back out to grid view. Drop down menu suggests I just need to hit return, same thing happens. This happens at all zoom levels fit, fill, 1:1, etc. I'm running OSX 10.9.2. Sounds like a setting issue, but I've looked.
View 1 Replies View RelatedI can read a view scale with:
BaseViewScale = oDoc.Sheets.Item(1).DrawingViews.Item(1).Scale
But When I try to use the following line to change the scale, I get a compile error.
oDoc.Sheets.Item(1).DrawingViews.Item(1).Scale = BaseViewScale
What type of variable should BaseViewScale be (single, double, string)?Inventor Routed Systems 2010.

i already know how to change the viewport scaling from 1:1, to 1:10, to 1:20, and so on but my real issue is someone before me change the view scale from 1:1 to 1:.808XXXXX. when i print my figures from the layout everything that is not in the viewport ( like my scale bar) come out shorter that it is on the the screen in paper space. Ive tried to change it back to 1:1 but it wont accept it and keeps the .808XXX value.
View 2 Replies View RelatedMy drawing inb model space looks fine, however when I try to set it up to plot in paper space, via the properties box with the "correct scale factor" and the drawing becomes very large. The only scale I can get the drawing to plot at is "fit to page", which is no scale. I have tried to set the scale on the "page setup" and the same thing happens.

Problem 1: I can't view to scale in page space.
Aim: Plot 1:50 at A1 page size.
Notes: I am plotting in page space. The page set up is at an A1 page, . I have created new viewports and tried to change the scale inside the viewport to 1:50 but it blows up the drawing way bigger than 1:50. I have gone through everything I can think of and it does not make a difference.
Problem 2: I can't get it to print the full page layout.
Aim: Print to the printer and to PDF as what is seen on the screen
Notes: I am able to print to the printer at A3 with scale 1:100 but only half of it comes out on paper. Every which way I change something like portrait / landscape or new window selection it prints wrongly.PLUS when I plot to PDF it plots perfectly but the scale is slightly off. It prints out at 1:110 or so, slightly off from 1:100.
How does it work? I see in the properties after I high lite it. Annotative Scale no/yes. We xref one drawing into other drawing and the view scale changes. will my hatch look the same or will the smaller view scale look really big in the drawing.

I have been using AutoCad for 2009 and had it all set perfect. Just had a computer melt down and trying to establish everything back how I had it all before.
One little tool that was very useful was a drop down box called, VIEWPORT SCALE CONTROL. I had all my scales in there and used to just click the border in paperspace, click the scale from the drop down box and set your scale. How to get this back.
When setting the viewport scale how do I know if I'm scaling to an A3 plot or A1 etc.
View 9 Replies View RelatedI have a drawing in model space the i drew to scale of 1'=1' and I went to paper scape to put the drawing in my title block using Viewports. highlighted the viewport and went to properties to give the drawing a scale so it would maximize the Viewport area, on my 22"x34" paper. but under the standard scale 1/64"=1' is too big and 1/128"=1' is too small. the simple solution is zoom extents but then in my title block i have to put NTS. I would like to add to the standard scale or be able to set the customer scale to a whole number. EX. 1:1000 or 1:150, etc. etc.

View 8 Replies View RelatedSomeone was using my computer and maybe they clicked on some button but now if I am in a layout and double click on my viewport I can not change the View Scale by typing in a custom scale.
I typically work in meters and do subdivision layout so I use 1:500 up to 1:5,000 but now even though the view ports are unlocked the number will not change when I type it in but I can zoom in and out with my mouse.
I can pick a scale in viewport scale like 1:5 1:1 but prefer to type in my scale as I like to plot it.
We have a number of drawings, where the views in paperspace viewports are not orthogonal to the XY plane. Is there any way that we can adjust the viewport view to a TOP view (a view aligned to the XY plane) without changing the viewport scale?
If I activate the viewport and use either PLAN or View->TOP my viewport scale is destroyed, and the view is rotated along the Z-axis.
I use: oView.scale=oView.scale/2 to half each view scale. It works for base view, projected views like bottom view and left view, but it doesn't work for Isometric view. Which property should I use for Isometric view?

View 9 Replies View RelatedI can control the size of my main drawing views using ilogic based on the models extents as there is a direct relationship between a parts length and the drawing view width. however, I have several isometric views that I scale according to the model size but in certain configurations of my model the ISO’s are completely the wrong scale for that particular view where the main views are ok.
I have a set area on my drawing sheet for the iso view and it would be more beneficial to control the size of the view rather than the scale of the view. I can read the height and width of a view so why can’t I control the size of a view but the height or width?
I am working on an architectural drawing and for some reason when I try to "objectscale" the annotation to the same scale as the view port I am using, it doesn't appear or if it does it is a lot smaller scale than I requested.
