Line type scale in the same drawing with different scale.

Hello,

 

I'm working on a drawing with two different scales of the same XREF in the paper space. 

How do you set the linetype scale to ensure dashed lines in both viewports display the same way?

 

My current settings:
Xref : LTSCALE = 96

Host drawing : LTSCALE = 1

 

I tried clicking the viewport, changing the linetype scale in the [Properties tab / General / Linetype scale] to a different number, but it did not change anything.

In the host dwg where you have the xref with the two vports in layout set psltscale to 1. This tells AutoCAD to change the ltscale of each vport based on each vports scale factor.

Hi,

You can set the PSLTSCALE system variable to maintain the same linetype scaling for objects displayed at different zoom factors in the layout (paper space) and in the layout viewport (model space).

.... OR is one DWG file's units "metric" and the other "imperial" by chance?
