    Blocks have multiple scales attached

    Hi

     

    I'm working in 2013 and when I insert an annotative block at one scale say 1:10 because that's what it needs to be at, than within in the same drawing file I'll add another block but need a different scale say 1:50, than when I go back to the first block and click on it to edit it, it will have both scales attached to it and sort of blow up to show both scales until you exit out of it than it'll go back to normal.

     

    Please help it's driving my co-workers crazy!

    There are 2 buttons at the bottom of the screen (annoallvisible and annoautoscale).  Turn off annoautoscale and you will not be adding annotation scales to all of your objects whenever you change scales.

    What does the button look like I've checked all the ones along the bottom and don't see annoautoscale, but if I type that in the setting is at -4

    You're welcome and I hope that was sincere.  I would certainly appreciate the same.  Seriously!

    I'm not sure what relevance Steve's contribution has but if you hit F1 at the annoautoscale prompt, help will tell you everything else you need to know.  If you don't see the buttons on your status bar, right click and add them.

    I'm not entirely sure either, but to each their own.

     

    Thanks very much!
