linetype scale in Model Space/Paper Space
« on: March 16, 2015, 01:10:23 PM »
Hi guys,

How Can I set linetype in paper space the same model space?

My project is 1:1000 scale and the LTScale is 4,5 in the model space. When I change to paper space I can't see dashed lines.

I start with LTSCALE = 1 and PSLTScale = 1. I hardly ever have to but, if necessary, I adjust the linetype scale of the objects to suit.

Thank you for replay,
But isn't working, I can't see the dashed lines in paper space.

You might need to regen it.

If you have MSLTSCALE =1, LTSCALE = 1 and PSLTScale = 1 and annotation scale set to 1:1000 in model and paperspace then should look the same.

MSLTSCALE = 1.

Excellent!!

Thank you very much Jeff and Rob.

also be wary of CELTSCALE

Watch out for imperial line types loaded into a metric drawing, and vice-versa.  Also watch out for implied scale factors ie. model space in meters, paper space in millimeters (paper space is always millimeters or inches, regardless of model space units), and annotation scale named 1:1000 with actual values of 1:1.

I've seen some drawings where the user apparently didn't grasp the concept of scaling and unit differences, with paper space title blocks scaled 1000x to compensate for an actual viewport scale of 1:1000.
If you are going to fly by the seat of your pants, expect friction burns.
