hi, i am here again for another question.

see i have this working drawing of a furniture that i will set for scale 1:30m, but i have to include a spot detail of the furniture where i will set it for 1:5 or 1:2. how will i be able to set it that both are scaled in their own measurement? thanks in advance guys! :)

You shouldn't be scaling anything. Everything in model space should be drawn full size 1:1. Scale for printing should be set up in paper space. You can create viewports and set your various print scales independantly for each.
