Change Custom Scale to Display NTS

andrew.scheffner — Mon, 17 May 2021 17:48:07 GMT

Running AutoCAD 2021, I don't see an overly-obvious way of going about this, but is there a way to change the viewport scale text field to display "NTS" instead of "Custom" at every decimal scale? Essentially just need to change the automatic scale of Custom to display NTS.

Thanks!

maybe there is another way.

What if you added a VP_SCALE sheet property with a default value of NTS and linked the attribute to that and only when you want to show a scale you would link it to the viewport object scale.

Thoughts?
