    Default Line Scaling

    Never used posts or forua. I hope I'm doing this right and I get some responses.
    In the attached Paper Space view: (I hope it attached.)

    I have 2 viewports with different scales. How do I get the line type scales to be the same in the paper space viewports while being that I can see the line types as I have them in Model Space?

    Thank You.

    option A is to do your model space work through the viewport

    option B is to change the model space cannoscale to reflect one of your viewport settings -- swap around as required

    PSLTSCALE (System Variable) http://help.autodesk.com/view/ACD/20...0-20F060313D62

    Different layout tabs can have different settings for PSLTSCALE, check PSLTSCALE while on that layout.

    When you change PSLTSCALE or use a command such as ZOOM with PSLTSCALE set to 1, objects in viewports are not automatically regenerated with the new linetype scale. Use the REGENALL command to update the linetype scales in each viewport.

    If that doesn't fix it you'll need to attach or provide a link to the drawing file.

    Thank you all for your help. I finally got what I wanted after a lot of experiments and your suggestions.

    Glad you got it working! Working with the most customizable software on earth is great most of the time, but figuring out issues affected by so many settings and options can be frustrating at times. I was there this morning with a drawing from a consultant.
