Hello all, ive saved a block into my library so I can insert it into other drawings. The problem is, when i insert it, it inserts extremely zoomed out. I try to zoom in but model space is not able to zoom in that far.

Hi,

so tiny, or so big? You should be able to zoom in much enough.

Follow the steps and answer the questions pls.

 

1. Create and work with a copy of your target file 

2. RENAME the block to test

3. Insert your block again by the way you did it before, which way is it in detail?

3. Command: ZOOM OBJECT LAST

 

Can you see it now?

Well I figured out the ribbon thing. Thanks for the reply again. Ive attached a screen shot of th problem im still having of the block being way to zoomed out. Id like to add, If i start a brand new drawing and insert this said block, it shows up just fine.. it only happens in the existing model that im on. I know i can just start a new drawing but id like to know what the hell i did in that certain model space for me to be having problems

Hi,

 

everyone could check this, but we don't have access to your .dwg

 

Measure this, I think it is much to big (unusual) and because of this, all other stuff looks tiny. User command DIST<enter> to explore your dimensions

And yes, if you are using a very very large area in your .dwg or an area billions units away from WCS 0,0,0

you get trouble.

 

X=1913300000000000000000000.0 Y=2653800000000000000000000.0 Z=0,0

is way too far away and some objects looking too big.
