Title: Set all Blocks at 1 = 1
Post by: MSTG007 on June 24, 2004, 07:19:16 PM

Set all Blocks at 1 = 1, when insert into dwg... you can tell it what size to be:)

I draw my symbols up at 1 to 1. Then when I insert them at drawing scale the symbol appears on all of the plots as the same size.

Generally speaking I agree with Dent (wow, did I just say that?) -- create block symbology at 1:1, scale the instances.

Sometimes it happens, I've been agreeing with alot (not all) that he has to say in this forum.

Seems like this bunch has (for the most part) the same ideas as to what drafting "standards" should entail.
L:ike any other drawn object, a block should be 1=1.

precisely .... if'n it is not 1:1 how would you effectively edit a typical block that didn't quite fit the bill?
