Delete ALL “drawing scales”,

Delete ALL “drawing scales”,

I couldn’t figure out if there is a way to delete all “drawing scales” (attached) in one go. The delete should include all scales even those which are used in the drawing. One drawing scale is required to be kept which is 1:1.

Is that possible

Thank you

Hi Henrique,

Sorry to bother you again with this issue.

Recently (CAD 2016), the .lsp file that does delete ALL annotation scales in one go appears not to work properly. Sometime, it fails to delete All the annotation scale in one go.

The .lsp file is attached

What might be wrong with it?

Hello Jamal,

could you please attach your test dwg?

I don't have AC2016 in this laptop, only 2015, but I think there is no difference in annotation scales from 2015 to 2016...

Please, find attached the dwg file

Hi Jamal,

thank you for the dwg!

I was able to reproduce that behavior.

I have a deadline to meet today, but tomorrow I'll see what I can do.

Hi Jamal,

as I had previously said, the problem was not related with the AutoCAD version...

The code was based on a selection of annotative objects, and in your dwg there none of the objects was annotative...

Try this revided version.

Hope this helps,
Henrique

Hi Henrique,

It appears that the lps file is again not able to delete some annotation scales. The dwg file is attached

What might be the issue here?

Thanks for all the LSP files and feedback. It does really help.

After using most of the LSP files here and updating the LSP with a newer version provided. I was able to clean one file, but not sure what the sequence is.

Now I am cleaning another file, and the last LSP provided here doesn't clean the scale list. It basically add the 1:1 and I still have 4 to 5 more scale floating around on the list.

Using Architectural Desktop 2017

Thanks in advance.

I've tried all the lisp and it seems to have a problem with dimensions
If i have a scale set to a dimension and i run the LSP the dimension is forced to 1:1
The multileader keep the scale on but seems the dimension are updated ....
is it possible?

We need to wait Henrique to comment on this as her is the creator of the lisp file
