Mar 14, 2013“annotation scale” on the lay out mode,
I’m not sure about the current “annotation scale” in case of lay out mode.
Annotation scale option is displayed only in the model and viewport mode but not in the lay out mode (attached)!
Based on what annotative objects living on the lay out but neither in the model (or viewport) are re-sized? At this mode, there is no option to choose the annotation scale?
On other words, how to choose the annotation scale in the lay out mode?

Sep 2, 2012I have a floor plan with a very long footprint in a "View" drawn at a convenient scale.
The long building had to be broken to be put on several different "Sheets", and each of the floor plans on each of the sheet has a scale.
When I change the scale of the partial plan on one "Sheet", all the other sheets also change to the same scale and also the original view changes to the new scale.
Is there a way to assign the desired scale of the plan on one sheet without affecting the scale on the other sheets and on the original drawing view?
AutoCAD Civil 3D :: Label Styles Annotation Scale Versus Viewport Scale?
Jun 26, 2009am in the process of setting up a standard file for all designers to use our local office. This file will have most of the styles created for profiles, alignments, surfaces, profile views, etc... as mostly specified by the customer and industry standards.
I am having trouble maintaining the correct annotation scale in the viewport in paperspace and when plotting.
The attached word document has 3 figures. Fig 1 shows the correct viewport scale and correct annotation scale. Fig 2 shows how the annotation scale abruptly changes during the plotting process. This abrupt annotation scale change sometimes happens during the regen process or when I switch from layout to model space and back to layout.The annotation scale goes from 1:1 to 1:40 just as in the viewport. This change in annotation scale is not supposed to happen because I want to preserve a certain plotting height for my text versus a viewport scale by using various annotation scales.
I have researched the procedures for annotation scale and have not found any info related to this "abrupt change in annotation scale".
Curiously , this abrupt change in annotation scale does not happen if the text does not belong to any styles within Civil 3D. Stand alone text stays at the correct annotation scale and is not affected in the same way.
AutoCAD Architecture :: Synchronize Annotation Scale To Viewport Scale?
Mar 29, 2011I have a Viewport set to scale 1:100 and the Viewport is locked.The Annotation Scale displayed in the Viewport was 1:50.
When I clicked on the Synchronize Icon beside the Viewport Scale, the Viewport Scale changed, even though the Viewport was locked.
I was expecting the Annotation Scale to synchronize to the Viewport Scale.
Is this how it is supposed to work? and why does a locked Viewport Scale change?
AutoCAD Civil 3D :: Making Annotative Scale Different From Viewport Scale
Nov 8, 2013I have a drawing with several layouts, and in one particular layout only, I want the text to be smaller than the annotation scale would dictate (the viewport is 1"=300', but I want the text to display at 1"=50' annotation scale).
I tried selecting the viewport and changing the "annotation scale" property to 1"=50', then the "standard scale" property to 1"=300'.
Strangely, this seems to work for a bunch of MText objects I have in the drawing, but it won't work for an alignment station label group or for a particular linetype...for some reason, those two things insist on having their annotation scale equal to the viewport scale.
I tried messing around with the alignment station label group's style but couldn't figure anything out. As far as the line/linetype, I'm completely at a loss why that one wouldn't change.

AutoCAD LT :: Polyline Layout Viewport Properties

Normally in 2002 Lt you can edit the scale properties in a layout viewport, but this is not available when I view the properties of the inserted polyline layout viewport. is there a way of changing the scale in either AutoCAD 2002LT or AutoCAD 2000 (full version)of this polyling layout viewport?
View 5 Replies View RelatedAutoCad :: Layout Space / Viewport / Viewmode
Dec 29, 2011 AutoCad 2011 for Mac..I am having trouble in understanding how to use the layout space or maybe it is more correct to say the paperspace...
The thing I´d like to know is how to be able to zoom and pan my drawing inside a layout. And not to zoom or pan the whole layout. Or let me say it like this: I have different layouts in one when I zoom or pan the paperspace is zoomed or paned. In another it is the drawing in the paperspace that is changing.
s I found things about values like VIEWMODE. When I type in this command I get the value but I found no way how to change it.
AutoCAD .NET :: Edit Default Viewport In A Layout
Jan 15, 2009I'm trying to simply edit the default viewport in a layout that I've created. I can't seem to find any threads that were successful or answered about this. I need to set the scale, size and linetype of the viewport. When I've tried, the viewport has simply not changed. I'm afraid im not getting the current viewport. Im using ed.activeviewportid hoping that its associated with the current layout as specified by layoutmanager???
View 2 Replies View RelatedAutoCad 2D :: Viewport Scale To Be 1 To 25
Mar 17, 2011When I scale a viewport, I normally type in the scale I want into the Viewports toolbar. So if I want the viewport to be 1 to 25, I type in "1:25". I have done this for years. Now all of a sudden, I have started a brand new drawing, setup the company border as A1. Then typed in "1:25" into the toolbar, and it zooms RIGHT in so you cannot see the drawing. But when I use the old fashioned command:
zoom - scale - 1/25xp
It works perfect. Why this is happening with the toolbar?
AutoCad :: How To Set The Scale Of Viewport
Apr 27, 2010I have just installed Autocad Architectural 2011 (64Bit) on my computer, since my laptop was struggeling with running autocad 2009.
I have opened a 3d model of my building (created in the 2009V) in Cad 2011, played around a little bit and am now at the point of having to create some viewports to plot elevations etc. But now i am stuck, i have created a viewport, selected it and can't figure out how to set the scale. I saw there was a 'button' (that is not working?) on the bottom, saying 'Vieport Scale', i can't click on it to change the scale, so i went to properties. When i select 1/100 Standard Scale, it automatically goes back to Custom Scale and sets it to 0.005. Basically nothing happens! The only way it changes the scale is when i double click on the viewport and zoom in/out on my building. But that can't be the only way to do it?!
I have got a deadline coming up, and really can't work on my laptop again as it keeps overheating and crashing on me! How to set the scale of my viewport and actually get it to do it?
AutoCAD LT :: Xref Send To Back In Layout (viewport)
Sep 4, 2009When i insert a xref in a drawing i always use the command "send to back" in the model space. However when you switch to the layout the xref sometimes is on top of the symbols in the drawing. This problem is easy to fix with send to back but when you want to do this you have to set the viewport to modelspace selct your xref and then send to back. This is easy to do when you only have a few layouts but when you have a couple of layouts with several viewports in each layout it's a very time absorbing job. Is there any variable to make sure that the xref is always send to back in the layout space.
p.s i'm using Autocad LT 2010

View 4 Replies View RelatedAutoCAD 2010 :: Regen In Layout Viewport Does Not Work
May 8, 2012My layers in layout viewport are displayed in wrong order even after I use REGEN or REGENALL command.
I am working with drawing file with quite big amount of layers (about 100+ including layers of 7 xrefs) and because I want to use different layer settings for each printed drawing I work directly in the layout viewports instead of model space so I don't have to switch on/off countless layers all the time.
The problem is that quite often layers just turn into wrong draw order and don't come back even if I hit REGEN or REGENALL command. To solve this I have to zoom out, jump out of the viewport by doubleklick outside, use REGENALL command and then jump back to viewport so I can keep on working. This is extremely time consuming especially if it happens every 3 minutes, over and over again.
AutoCAD LT :: Viewport Scale List
Jan 12, 2012recently upgraded to a new stand alone LT 2012 on brand new machine.I only work in metric millimeters. When I open a new drawing and set up a viewport on a new layout tab the viewport scale list is as one would expect i.e. 1:1 1:2 1:4 1:5 1:10 1:25 1:50 etc etc
when I open an existing drawing I only have the option of imperial scales i.e. fractions. I have tried simply adding the most commonly used scales to the list but once the drawing is saved and closed, they have disappear when reopened.
AutoCAD Civil 3D :: Viewport Scale Changes
Apr 26, 2013In c3d 2013 in the layout tabs when I hover over the annotation scale for the viewport it automatically changes the viewport like a "preview" of that scale. Is there a way to shut that off?
I ask because I believe it is altering my annotative point descriptions so I have to regen everytime my scale changes to see if the scale will work or not. A co-workers computer doesn't seem to preview and it works fine on their computer my preview appears to mess the annotation up on mine.

AutoCAD LT :: Dimensions Out Of Scale In Viewport
Aug 9, 2013I have a serious problem with AutoCAD placing improperly scaled dimensions within viewports. I have a drawing where half of the dimensions are correctly scaled and the other half are off by as much as 4 times their value. This occurs randomly without any rhyme or reason- and sometimes occurs whenever a drawing is opened. I know of a couple of drawings that if I simply open them, a dozen dimensions will scale up to 12x their intended value. It has happened to everyone on my staff. We are using LT 2011- but I have had a similar problem using 2004 & 2007 full seats.
