Dimension Annotative scale

I am trying to set an Annotative scale of 1:15 to a linear dimension.
There is a tutorial how to that, because 1:15 is not default autocad scale.

Here is the tutorial (File->Options->User Preferences->Default Scale List):

add_new_custom_scale.png

 

My problem is that after I add the new 1:15 scale, this scale is still not available in 'Add Scales to Object' box below:

new_custom_scale_missing.png


Why is this so?

 

How do I add 1:15 annotation scale to a linear dimension?

I am grateful for any kind of help.

Click on "Reset" on the Edit Drawing Scales dialogue and it will match what your default scale list is. Then the 1:15 will appear.

Hi,

 

Your first place/picture is the master list of your autocad,

but in in dwg you are working with scales which are inside the DWG!

 

In DWG You can use the RESET option to import scales from this master list, or tell it system list.

 

For new drawings you should add 1:15 to your own drawing template(*.dwt) too,

if that scale is usual for your work.

Thank you for the reply @doben .
This is how "Default Scale List" looks like before I click on "Reset":

After I click on "Reset" the newly created 1:15 scale disappears:

@cadffmThank you for the reply.
This scale is not usual for my work. I just want to add it to this particular .dwg file, not the template files.
I didn't understand your suggestion - is the Reset you are suggesting the same one as @Anonymousen?

1. Use Reset in your DWG!

   (While 1:15 is present in your master list)

 

2. But if you need 1:15 in just one DWG, you dont need the master list,

go into your DWG and create the scale there!

ScaleListEdit command

Solution 2 from your last reply did it: ScaleListEdit command worked perfectly! Thank you @cadffm.
