Hi folks

I've come across something weird. (again)

I'm drawing a section line, using section Mark A3T, and it and the text comes in at the wrong scale. When I have the drawing scale set to 1/4"=1'-0" the bubbles and text comes in like I had the scale at 1/8" and when I set the drawing scale to 1/8", the bubbles and text scale to what should be 1/4". It's reversed.

Has someone else run into this phenomenon??

Thanks!
Marv

Marv, sounds like something got screwed up in the mview block creating with respect to detail level. Just a thought.

Please explain what you mean David.
These callouts are attributed blocks.

Thanks a lot!

Marv, when mview blocks are created, you must draw a different "block" for each type of view (detail level). You blocks may have been mixed when it was created. Or are you talking about something that's ootb?

Hey David -

I used the OOTB callouts and modified for my needs and it works fine now. I just did it that way thinking it would be easier to start over than try to find the needle in the haystack problem.

Thanks again!

Sections are not MV blocks, they are simple Blocks.

Draw both of the sections marks as you described above and attach the DWG for review.
