AutoCad :: Changing Linetype Scale For Just One Layer

Mar 11, 2004

I have loaded an insulation linetype and I needed to make the ltscale of that line .194 in the linetype manager so that it would fit in my 3.5" walls.I would like my insulation linetype to always be drawn at .194 ltscale. All of my other lines/linetypes I would like to stay at 1.00

When I changed the linetype scale of the insulation to .194 every other ltscale went with it. Is it possible to change one ltscale independently of all your other linetypes?

AutoCAD LT :: Change Linetype Scale For A Layer?

Oct 3, 2011

I want to change my ground conductor from solid green to a dashed line (green is OK) on a set of drawings, but all the dashed linetypes I can find don't show up well at the scale that I've drawn the circuits.  I can make them look OK by changing the linetype scale in the properties manager window, but there are a boatload of these lines in eight viewports; finding them all would be a major pain.  They are all on a single layer, though, but in the layer properties manager I do not see a way to change the linetype scale for the layer. I could use the properties manager to make the change if I could select everything on the layer. Is there a way to do that?

AutoCad :: Basic Linetype Scale

Dec 9, 2011

When I draw a line at my template it always has the line type scale 5 as default under properties.

I know that I can chance this by hand or chance a basic line type scale with the command "lts".

But all the lines in the drawings of our partner have the line type scale 1 under properties. So if I used "lts", there would either my lines or their lines be scaled wrong. Also I don't want to chance the default line type scale of each line by hand.

Is there a possibility to set up something that each line I'm drawing, starts with a specific line type scale as default under properties?

AutoCAD LT :: Linetype Scale Not Compatible Between Two Drawings

Feb 8, 2013

I'm using AutoCAD LT 2007 and have a problem with linetype between two drawings. I have a standard key which I use on a number of drawings, problem is when I copy from my original file (in model space) to paper space on another drawing the linetype isn't viewed the same.

I've set LTSCALE to 1. PSLTSCALE to 0, Global scale factor to 1 in both files but still no joy.

AutoCAD 2013 :: How To Change Linetype Scale

Oct 23, 2012

I have a problem between my template in inch and the one in mm.

Its the linetype scale that is wrong in the mm one, when i draw in the inch one, everything is fine but when i draw in the mm one, i have to set the ltscale to like 25 to see them at the same scale that they are in the inch one.

My guest is its because i've create my template for the mm one base on the inch one and i just change the unit type to mm. Is there a setting i could change that will arrange this?

AutoCAD Visual LISP / AutoLISP :: Quicker Alternative Changing Annotative Scale In Object Scale List

I would like to find a lisp that changes the scale of something that has an annotative scale and deletes all other scales in the object scale list.  Often i have many different scales of existing dimensions or objects. i waste a lot of time opening the annotation object scale dialogue box, selecting add, finding my scale and deleting the old scale.

AutoCAD 2010 :: Linetype Scale Not Compatible Between Two Drawings

Oct 5, 2012

I work very closely with a customer, and have been asked to implement their drafting standards for a dwg file they received from another vendor.  I have attached two drawings, 1 (their vendor's) and 2 (mine, in progress).  When opened, I notice the linetype scale *appears* different between the drawings (note the differences within "LINE LEGEND" section of both drawings).  It *appears* as though Drawing 2 has double the linetype scale of Drawing 1.    

I realize that within Drawing 2 I could set the LTSCALE variable to 0.5, but that seems like a work-around and may cause problems with other aspects of the customer's drafting standards in the future.   

I've already confirmed that both drawings have the same values for LTSCALE, PSLTSCALE, MSLTSCALE, CELTSCALE.  I've also already confirmed that, for the "PACKAGED EQUIPMENT" entry with the legend, the properties dialog box shows the exact same values for all fields.  Lastly, (trying [URL] .....) I re-loaded the linetype for PHANTOM2.

I'd like to have them both appear the same, if possible.

AutoCAD Architecture :: Gas Linetype - Cannot Seem To Scale Text Properly

Jul 19, 2013

I'm drawing a gas line (the one that says gas throughout the length of the line) and i can't seem to scale the text 'gas' properly, it seems that it is all squashing up and i cant make out what it says. I've tried ltscale, psltscale and the actual linetype scale of the line to no avail. I'm sure this is a simple problem, i just cant work it out.

AutoCAD Map 3D :: Linetype Changing Scales

Jun 15, 2012

I am using Map 3D 2013

I have several drawings in which I want to use a line type (centrex2) at a specific scale. The scale setting is exactly the same in all the drawings but in some the line type is coming out at different scales, all larger, but not the same or to a set factor. All the entities in question are poly lines (2d).

I have checked in all drawings that:
 
global scale factor and current object scale in the line type manager are the same (1.0)drawing units are the same (unitless)‘use paper space units for scaling’ is always deselected line type generation is always enabled.

AutoCAD 2010 :: Linetype Is Not Scaling Based On Annotative Scale

Oct 17, 2012

I have a drawing (attached) with the following settings: LTSCALE = 1, MSLTSCALE = 1, PSLTSCALE = 1.For some reason the linetype is not scaling based on the annotative scale. It will update correctly if I change the LTSCALE but for some reason it wants to ignore the MS and PSLTSCALE variables.

As a note, the drawing was converted from a Microstation drawing and the linetype is a converted Microstation linetype.Is there something in the linetype that is doing this.

AutoCad 2D :: Making Global Scale Factor And Linetype Scales?

Dec 3, 2013

I’ve got a series of third party drawings that are quite intricate, with a series of nested blocks, some of which cannot be exploded.

The issue i have is that they have been drawn with a global scale factor of 1. Our office works with a global scale factor of 10.

Is there a quick and easy way to make the global scale factor 10, but then somehow retain the scale of the third party drawing lines so they retain their look?

Trying to avoid either just drawing with a global scale factor of 1 (which is a pain as all our blocks are set up for global scale factor of 10) or going into each of the bound xrefs and making all line scales 0.1 (mammoth task given the amount of drawings and all the nested/unexplodable blocks).

AutoCad :: Change Overall Linetype Scale Using Modify Properties Dialogue Box

Apr 19, 2013

Quicker way to change the overall linetype scale than using the 'modify properties' dialogue box that comes with Autocad 2008? I've attached an image that specifically shows what I am trying to change, but I get tired of always having to scroll down in the box to find this variable. I would love to have something simple like the old DDCHPROP dialogue box (see smaller image). LISP routine or something where I click on the toolbar button, and simply change the overall scale without having to navigate through the native one?

AutoCad 2D :: Linetype Scale System For Center And Hidden Types

Feb 23, 2012

I have been adopting a linetype scale system for CENTER & HIDDEN types that works perfect on one drawing but not in another.

Here it is:

Globally,

Measurement:1
MSLTSCALE:1
PSTLSCALE:1
CELTSCALE:1
LTSCALE:1

CENTER lines are scale 0.1 (works fine in all drawings and in both 1:30 and 1:4 viewports)

HIDDEN lines are scale 0.3 (work in one drawing but failed in the second drawing in both 1:30 and 1:4 viewport)

Setting the HIDDEN lines to 10 works with most other drawing.

I want to know first of all why this setting of 0.1 CENTER and 0.3 HIDDEN works on one drawing and not on another one in spite of the general settings set alright.

AutoCAD Architecture :: Changing Polygon Colour Or Linetype

Apr 1, 2009

I'm currently trialling ACA 2010 in our office. In previous releases we used AEC Polygons as hatch and boundary objects for say concrete footing as an example.

Without the properties toolbar, how would I go about changing the linetype or colour of the aec polygon, I don't want to change the layer or a style based override I just want to assign a new colour to an object as the style base is set to 'byblock'. The properties for changing linetype, scale and colour aren't in the properties palette either.

Is this a bug or is there a correct workflow I must assume from now on?

Photoshop :: Changing Opacity In Selection On Layer Without Changing Entire Layer

Aug 21, 2013

I've been using Photoshop CS2 for several years to enhance my photographs, but just now have encountered something simple I cannot find out how to do.   I have on the background layer a picture of a room interior with the exposure set mostly for the open window, but the rest of the room is very dark.  On the only other layer, the upper one, I have the same shot exposed correctly for the room, which overexposes the window area.  The upper and lower layers are perfectly superimposed, and the upper layer is at 100% opacity. 

I have selected the window on the upper layer and want to change the selected area's opacity to blend properly with the window on the bottom layer without changing opacity of the rest of the layer.  No matter what I do, changing opacity seems to affect only the entire layer, and I haven't figured out how to isolate the selected area for the opacity change.
 
I can cut the selection to reveal the darker window on the bottom layer, but this doesn't give me the flexibility I need to balance the two exposures. An opacity change would be ideal.

Photoshop :: Changing A 'scale' Of Colors To A Scale Of Transparency?

Sep 16, 2005

is it possible to create a gradient brush with the colors fading from black to white, and then edit the colors so instead of black fading into white, it's now black fading into transparent?

(so the pixels that were pure yellow are now completely transparent, the pixels that were slightly darker yellow are now almost completely transparent, the pixels that were dark yellow are now barely transparent, and the black pixels remain completely black.)

(I was only able to do it now because I started off with that black/transparent image)

I want to do this so I can change the color of the yellow.. I could use replace color,

What I'm basically trying to do is be able to change stuff in images/screenshots, like add a pattern to a white shirt (so, get rid of all of the white), but completely preserve the darkness of its wrinkles/shadows etc. A friend told me I should just desaturate it, then make it like 50% transparent, then duplicate it so there's 2 of those layers.. and add the new pattern behind it. But it doesn't look that good..

AutoCAD 2013 :: List All Linetype From Layer

Jun 26, 2013

I have a layer named XYZ, that contains ARC, LINE and POLYLINE. I want to get a list of all linetypes from every ARC, LINE and PLINE. If I open the properties, if I select only the ARC, under linetype I'm getting *Varies*. Instead of*varies*, I would like to have a list of all linetypes (ARC, LINE and PLINE).

Is it possible? WOuld it also be possible to do the same for linescale or weight?
