Not a newbie on the boards and have used AutoCAD for 'bout 10 years.
All my drawings have been done using model space, 1:1 scale.
Makes life easy. I scaled (used to) my title block to fit around my drawing in model space. FYI. All my printing is done 8-1/2" x 11 (laser letter) and/or *.pdf which I fit to the paper (letter) size.
I am now trying to work with drawings which I have two layers; i.e.: model & title block. Having some fun with this but, stumped on how
to proceed.
All works well except, title block layer, is sometimes overwhelmed; i.e.:
a drawing in model space that might be 15 ft long, doesn't scale properly in my title block layer.
I do like the idea having a title block layer where I can't edit the drawing done in model space.
Where am I goin' wrong? Might this be, "Can't teach an old dog new tricks?"
I've attached a *.dwg file for show 'n tell. What am I doin' wrong?Tankman2010-01-21 01:03:43
