Section Views using layout template and scale What was it again?

[RobertEVs]

Create multiple section views using layout template with 5 different scale options 1:10 1:20, 1:30, 1:40, 1:50. Create my section views using 1:30. Come back into drawing months later, NOW how do I determine what layout scale was used in the SV template process? There is nothing in SV properties that tells me this, nothing in styles. What is the easiest way to know what scale was used for the layouts when created?

Yes but if the MS space scale is changed that would be reflected in the current horizontal scale which I think is what I'm looking for. Really, I need to know as layouts are created what scale to set them at and I can't get that from the section view properties. Using a template layout scale is all connect to one section view style which does not list any particular scale like a profile view might

This might help;

ANNOSCALEZOOM

Determines whether the mouse wheel zoom in paperspace viewports is controlled by specific zoom scales or independent of viewport scales (legacy behavior).

Value Description
0 Off - mouse wheel zoom scales independent of viewport scales (legacy behavior)
1 On - mouse wheel zoom uses the scales of the current viewport

So each click of the mouse wheel will zoom in or out to the next available scale.

Usually I know what scale I want the plan sheets. For the profile I create one profile for the length of the alignment, see what scale will display in paperspace best and then create smaller profiles to display in each viewport.
