Edit the <Scale> Style

[Boyens]

Hi,

In an .idw file I have added the scale of the first view in the title block using an iLogic rule. It copies the scale as a custom property, which than will be used in the title block.

My problem is now that the default style of the Scale property has a "space" between the characters, which makes the reserved room for this text too small. previously I added the scale myself via a prompted entry, which obviously works fine, but I want the scale to be linked to the 1st view. See the added picture "Title Block Scale.jpg" to see what I mean.

Is there a way to change to style (or default settings) of the view scale (deleting the spaces")?

What I don NOT want to do is:

* increase the title block space. Because older drawings will then still show the older settings.

* Add the scale manually

Edit your active Standard style and select "Scale" under Preset Values on the General tab.  There you can make your list of selectable scales as you want them to appear, as long as they can be evaluated mathematically into an actual scale.

Perfect! I have been going throught the styles editor a number of times, without finding it. Thank you for the tip, Sam!
