    Default Setting Annotation Scale in AutoCAD 2008

    Alright, got 2008 loaded up for a week now and have been playing with that annotative/annotation scale concept. Great, lets get into the VBA and start changing over or the code to take advantage of it. Been searching but cannot find how to change the annotation scale, or create a new one etc. combing through any documentation I can find but so far no luck. Anyone figured this out yet or can you point me to some meaning full documentation?

    Thanks in advance,

    Kelly

    A lot guys here are yet to see AutoCAD 2008. I am sorry that I can not help you that reason. But I am sure that somebody will come up with a solution, sooner or later.

    Thanks Harris.

    In a two coffee search this morning I've found a lisp example, and references in ARX and .Net that will give me enough to keep the troops happy, however I'd love to figure out how to manipulate it through VBA as that is the environment I'm most comfortable in.

    About all I've heard is that the scales are now saved in a dictionary in the dwg as opposed to the registry as formerly was done. That info has come from ones who are beta testers. Otherwise, I'm still waiting to get my hands on it too.

    Is this question answered by now?
    I work with AutoCad 2010 , and still cannot find a VBA solution for changing the annotation scale of an object. ( AcadPviewport )
