I have been watching this thread hoping to find the solution to my ltscale problem with viewports, but things always stop short.
A typical drawing for me is set up as follows:
A subdivision base map in model space that may fit on one sheet at 1"=200' scale. The program consitantly resets the ltscale to 50 as dictated by the project settings. In some cases this may be or include an xref.
There are usually several layout tabs with viewports having scales that usually include 20, 50 and 100.
I also have a tab with a viewport where I do all of my editing. Its scale varies depending on my current zoom factor.
I can set my drawing ltscale to 1 with the tabs psltscale set to 1 and everything plots correctly, but I have no linetypes while editing. If I set ltscale to 50 and keep the program happy, someone forgets to change it at plot time and everyone gets chewed out.
I can set the ltscale to 50 with tabs psltscale at 0 and the plots look funky unless someone remembers to change the ltscale with each tab's plot, my edit window is wigged out all the time as I zoom in and out and nobody is happy but the program.
Is there any combination of these settings that will let me see linetypes while editing and have properly displayed linetypes when plotted without constantly changing these variables?
