AutoCAD 2013 :: Scale Of Drawing Field Versus Scale Of Object

Jun 27, 2013

When I open a new drawing in my AutoCAD 2013 that I just recently installed last week, I encounter a problem that I am not familiar with from previus versions of AutoCAD I have worked on.  First of all, the units default to decimal, and I want them to default to architectural, with feet and inches.  I have to type UNITS in the command line every time I open a new drawing in order to adjust this.  I have AutoCAD for Architecture 2012 on another computer, and the program automatically defaults to architectural units upon opening up.  Just to let you know, the program I am having this difficulty  with is part of a package called Autodesk Building Design Suite 2013.  I was under the impression that it included AutoCAd for Architecture, but I think it has only standard AutoCAD.

The scale of the objects I draw vs. the scale of the drawing field is very out of proportion.  What I mean is, when I open a new drawing and draw a 30' -0" line, the line appears so long on the screen that I cannot see the whole object, even if I zoom out to the maximum.  I should be able to see the object in it's entirety.  In fact, when I draw a line that is only 12" long, even when the zoom is all the way out, the line looks huge in length.  I have tried adjusting the units to the architectural/inches setting of course, and I have tried adjusting the scale in model space from 1:1 to 1/4'=1'-0", but nothing is working.

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 :: Dimension Scale Changes

Aug 3, 2011

In AutoCAD 2012 My dimension style/scale seems to change automatically.  I'll add one dimension in paper space,and then the very next dimension will be in a different style.  It will say 30" one time, then 400" the next.  Seems like it picks its own scale randomly.  It happens with the default dim styles as well as custom styles.

AutoCAD Civil 3D :: Scale / Stretch In One Dimension?

Apr 4, 2012

I am working on placing boring logs in a profile.  The logs come in at a 1:1 scale but the profile must be exaggerated vertically.  Is there anyway to stretch/scale an object in one direction.

I currently just have plines, hatches, and text but can repaste it as a block if that will make it easier.

AutoCAD 2013 :: Dimension Update To Viewport Scale Factor

Mar 5, 2013

When some off our users move the dimensions in paperspace or the drawing in modelspace,

only some off the dimensions would see the viewports scale factor, and multiply itself by that, from my knowledge this happens when you uses the power dimensioning in Mechanical, and the the annotative tick box is selected,  but for some reason one particular user he uses normal annotations when dimensioning, where there is no annotative functionally but the dimension still behave as mentioned.

AutoCAD Architecture :: 2012 - Dimension Arrow Scale For Architectural Ticks

Apr 13, 2011

I have recently started using Architect 2012. We use Architectural Tick for dimensioning.

The problem is the Architectural Tick arrow is not coming in at the proper scale (Arrow head size = 3/32", dimscale varies). The arrow head seems to be out by a scale factor of 25.4 (found by trial and error).

If so is there a software patch or workaround. Can the Architectural Tick block be edited and if so where is it?

(using Windows 7 - 64bit)

AutoCAD 2010 :: Make Dimension Get Bigger And Smaller As Scale Drawing?

Mar 20, 2012

How to make the dimension get bigger and smaller as we “scale” the drawing?

For example, the drawing in the screenshot below is scaled by 0.5 but that didn’t affect the “size” of the dimension (height of the text, extension lines, …).

Is there a way to get the dimension line affected as we scale the drawing such that the “dimension text” and the “extension line” are increased/ decreased with the scale factor?

CorelDRAW X6 :: Update Outline Width After Resizing Object If Scale With Object Selected

Dec 14, 2013

Resizing objects is a mess in CorelDRAW X6 when objects are outlined with Scale With Object enabled to retain proportions after resizing.

None of the tools dealing with outlines (e.g. Contour or even Outline itself) continue to work properly after resizing the object.

I strongly suggest to recalculate outline property values after resizing if Scale With Object is checked. Don't just do it hidden somewhere internally in the object model by applying a temporary scaling factor. Instead actually recalculate the actual property values if Scale With Object is checked.

AutoCAD 2010 :: Dimension Association To Any Existing Object In Drawings

Jan 23, 2013

I have a problem with Dimension association to any existing object in my drawings. If i draw anything new in the same drawing this problem does not occur. The leaders are also associating themselevs to these objects.

When i select a line, no grips appear even though if i draw a new line they do.

-I have tried to use DIMDISASSOCIATE the dimensions from the objsect to no avail.
-I have tried changing the DIMASSOC variable but this didnt work.
-I have tried exporting the objects to new files but still the same problem, only with the objects from this drawing.

It seems to have made every object associative. The only thing i can think that caused this was i pasted in a drawing from a pre 2002 Autocad version.

AutoCAD LT :: Object Scale Dialog Box Missing?

Mar 20, 2011

I am unable to coax the Object Scale dialog box to appear.  Typing OBJECTSCALE and invoking the Add/Delete Scales command via Annotate on the ribbon do nothing.  I looked in the CUI and everything appears normal with the command and macro.  I have attempted to see if the box was just off screen, but when I hit Alt+Spacebar, the main Autocad menu highlights, as if the Annotative Object Scale dialog box is not even open. I have lost dialog boxes off screen before, so I don't thing that is the issue.  I have done a Repair and an update to the latest service pack.

I am running Autocad 2010 LT on a Windows 7 64-bit machine with 8MB memory.    I have FILEDIA = 1, CMDDIA = 1, and ATTDIA = 1.

I have not done a complete reinstall due to the pain of updating all of my settings, but I guess that is a last resort if I cannot figure out how to get the dialog box to show up.

AutoCad :: Scale Object To Exact Dimensions?

Jun 22, 2011

After using autocad for a while, I got some questions i'd like to ask.

1) In my line of work, I have to label the items I draw in every CAD file, multileader is a nice tool to have but how do I keep the styles I make so that it "transfers" over to a new CAD file?

I have to keep making a new style everytime I create a new drawing. I would like for the default style to stay after I edit it.

2) Is there a way or command that lets me scale an object to exact dimensions? For example, I have a 800 by 750 table in my block library, the size I need is 950 by 820, normally I would have to explode it then stretch it manually on the x and y axis, is there a way to scale it up to 950 by 820 through a command?

3) I don't know what I hit, but I can't seem to select multiple objects just by clicking on them anymore, I now have to hold down the SHIFT key. How do I revert this?

AutoCad 2D :: Change Object Scale But Keep Dimensions The Same?

Sep 12, 2011

I am currently working on the drawing which I initially didnt have a template for (ie the border for the A1 page this drawing will be printed on) so off I went and started drawing using a scale of 1 drawing units = 1mm.

Now I have been given the border and the drawing I have comes no where near fitting on the sheet so I want to select all of the drawing and change the scale but I obviously don't want the dimensions to change. How can I achieve this?

I also need to know as there are certain parts of the drawings that need zoomed in views so all I want to do is copy the parts I have drawn and increase the scale but again keep the dimensions the same.

AutoCad 2D :: How To Get Scale Right To Print Object At Its Actual Size

May 24, 2013

I have been looking through a ton of threads and can only find half an answer to what I'm looking for: When I draw in mm, I have to set the scale of the viewport to 1:30 or somewhere in that range. But in reality, the object that Im drawing isn't 1/30th of the size that it prints. How do I get the scale right to print the object at its actual size? cad 2013
