AutoCAD 2007/2008/2009 DWG Format

[#1]

I have a drawing that is set to decimal and unitless, but in the annotation scale, and the plot scale, all the choices are given with units, for example 1" = 50' instead of 1:50. How do I make the drawing truly unitless so it reads 1:50, I must be missing a setting somewhere... Thanks!

I thought it was AECCDWGSETUP or AECDWGSETUP, try that

Does Autodesk issue service packs on
the release you are using? not likely.

We just have vanilla cad, no aec products. It doesn't recognize either of those commands.

That's probably in the scalelist definition. SCALELISTEDIT will access that
for the current dwg, but you can set up your templates (dwt's) as desired
for new dwgs. If you really want to control it for every dwg, we've got a
routine that autoloads that wipes the scale list, whatever it is,
completeely and rebuild's it with what we like. Happy to pass that on if
you want.

some users do not understand this is the 'niller group

Never heard of scalelistedit before, that fixed it!! I think we can just use the reset button in the editor for our purposes since the scales we need are on the standard list. Thanks so much!!

Awesome.
