Scale

[Anonymous]

I really struggle with recieving engineer drawings then creating my own scaled layout. 

Please see attached my final - Im trying to create an A1 layout with the whole of the details displayed on one page - but i can't get it to happen and I know there are little tricks that you can do.

Could someone please help me ASAP

Thanks.

Hi,

But you already created A1 Layout with viewport showing everything in model space at scale 1:1000.
Can you clarify your question?

Your LAYOUT1 is already set to an ISO A1 Expanded sheet size, the viewport is set to a 1:1000 scale, and all looks good and ready to go: other than AUDIT command finding a bunch of errors in the file's database you seem to have nailed it.

What additional help do you need?

Hi @Anonymous,

The current layout is scaled properly but I am guessing that the layout is the one used by the engineer. Can you give me a better idea of what you want on your layout? Perhaps attach another sample drawing or picture of what you are trying to achieve?

To scale the existing viewport, simply double-click inside of it and then go to the Scale list at the bottom right of your toolbar and select a different scale.

Once you have scaled the viewport switch back to paperspace and change the location and size of the viewport as necessary to accommodate your other work that you want displayed on the layout.
