Is there a way to freeze the scale of the drawing in relation to the screen to not change? I have a very large monitor, which is large enough for me to scale off it like a large construction drawing, ie. 24x36. Is there a way, for instance, to get the drawing to be at 1/4" per 1 foot on the screen, and make that scale freeze so that I can't zoom in or out? Tell me if this is an absurd question.
You are either waaaaay out ahead of everybody or a little behind. Manually scaling off the screen isn't done with the various direct measuring tools available (skipping any inherent inaccuracies of the display and user), and its rarely done even with paper (with proper annotations).
You might want to clarify that. Zooming, as I see it, is essential to go into the drawing far enough to distinguish the entities so work can be done accurately. In other words, snapping to the proper end/center/quad, making text readable, and so on.
