maybe you could try putting the legend into your sheet template? - not as a legend.......

create a viewport with the Detail Title turned off

select your view , go to EDIT TYPE button in properties

duplicate the current TYPE rename it and change the Show Title parameter to NO

kadmonkee,

That won't prevent the SHEET'S scale parameter from picking it up.

If the other views on the sheet all have a matching scale, then the sheet's scale parameter should match it. Only if the views on the sheet have scales that don't match, then the sheet's scale parameter will read, "As Indicated."

The only solution here (if you want to actually use a legend view) is to make your legend view scale match the scale of the other views on the sheet.

if I am understanding the issue correctly this method does work

if it is a matter of not seeing the title and or scale of the Legends View it does not matter what the scale of the legend view is

Original Legend view is set to 12"=1'-0"

copy 1 = 3/4"=1'-0"

the 2 on the right are duplicated views with the Title turned off

OP is asking about the piece of label on the Sheet title block, not the Legend view's title. The only way to prevent the Sheet saying Scale as indicated without removing the label is having all views including legends with the same scale.

This is ridicolous, i need to have a legend for every scale of Sheet?

What utility has legend with different scale if is everytime on sheet, that is in 1:1 scale!

Thanks anyway

I found another solution, i create the legend in an annotation (with the time to recreate the subcategories and the hatch as the project), so the legend change in function of the scale....

This is certainly the best way to do it, still in 2024.

Could the sheet not just have a tick box or similar to choose to ignore legend type elements etc.?

Sorry, what do you mean by "create the legend in an annotation"?
