Annotation object scale issue

Anonymous — Thu, 24 Jan 2019 14:13:51 GMT

hi!

I have an issue with annotation obect ( dimensions, multileader, text, etc.). I use an annotation style for all of thoses objects an usualy all work well. but sometimes, when I use it in viewport (scale to 1:100 for exemple) the obect is to 1:1 and not 1:100. very frustrating. Doest somebody know why?

thanks!

Check in the properties palette (command PROPERTIES) that your viewport scale and annotative scale match. It is possible for them to be different depending how you specified the scale of the viewport.

Check also that your annotative objects have that scale assigned to them. (Needs to have the same name, not be 1:50_1 or something.) If the annotative scale of the viewport isn't also associated with the objects, then it will display at whatever scale the objects are (or the objects won't show up at all if ANNOALLVISIBLE is set to 0)

Have you checked to make sure you have added the desired annotative scale to the object you want to see in the viewport?

It's an annotative dimention create in a viewport with a scale. Usualy the scale of the viewport is add to the dimentions automatically with annotatives, but the dims appear to 1:1...
