    Default batting linetype in xref

    When I xref a drawing which uses the batting lineype, the scale of the batting is off and the linetype shows very large.

    The batting linetype is scaled to 1.85 to create 1 1/2 batting. Both ltscale and psltscales are set to 1 in both the referenced and sheet files.

    I have tried a batt lisp routine as an alternative and my file size increased 10x before I had got half of the insulation in.

    Thanks,

    Jason

    Hi Jason,
    I have tried ro recreate your situation here and it works fine
    when psltscale is set to 0.

    I forgot to add that here, we always have the ltscale set to 1 and we make
    the lines look like we want them look by changing the ltscale of individual
    entities. That way everything looks the same whether in paper space or model space.

    cheers

    Your process is flawed. If PSLTScale=1 then the viewports will control the linetype scale factor automatically.
