hey ive searched n the help topic and cant find what im looking for
i want to scale my design to a scale of 1:100 in the layout.
i did it once befor but forgot how to do it as i have spent a long time away from cad.
please can someone tell me how to do it
 
i think the shortcut i used was something like   x or s then writing the scale (this was all done in the box at the bottom)

You can set the MVIEW scale e.g. in the Properties window (Ctrl+1) or in the status bar - just select the mview frame (in paperspace).

Hiya,

go to your layout and double click in the viewport.

Type z-enter  s-enter   then   1/100xp - enter.

Hope this works Smile
