Load default scale list?

bretwieseler · ‎09-22-2022

I manage the Autocad installation in a small office and I'm wondering if there is a way to load the default scale list into AutoCAD rather than having to manually enter them.

Thank you.

Hi @bretwieseler ,

You can use SCALELISTEDIT command to Reset Scale list to the defaults: pick on the Gear button and select Reset:

Thanks Maxim, but I was looking for a way to load a customized "default" list.

You can:

- attach drawing with your custom scale list to the drawing you want to import the sheet into.

- detach this Xref.

- uncheck "Hide Xref Scales" in the list of scales on the Status Bar:

- use imported scales - you can also edit their names after detaching Xref
