You can scale linetypes in paper space either based on the drawing units of the space in which the object was created or based on the paper space units. dashed lines are showing as continuous in both model and paperspace the property tab shows the linetype as by layer when i click on the line and under the layers proper manager the linetype for the layer says dashed. AutoCAD LT :: 2012 - Dashed Lines In Model Space Plot As Solid Line I have drawn a site plan in model space at 1to1 scale. But I’m still having an issue which I cannot find an answer to at all. right click a layout tab and choose From Template in the context menu Did you change the linetype scale in the properties manager while in model space? The front view now displays hidden lines properly with dashed lines. AAAAAAAAAAAHHHHHHHHHHHHH! The layers are visible in the layer box. you're using multiple viewports to look at the same thing. Set LTSCALE to 0.5 and PLTSCALE to 1 but only showing dashed lines in plot space. Share your knowledge, ask questions, and explore popular AutoCAD LT topics. I think it might be necessary for me to have these in the form of individual. First, my dashed lines aren't showing up. I've adjusted the Dash from 0,0.25 to everything inbetween 0,5.0 and none of them show up.
AutoCAD Hidden Lines Not Showing in Model Space | Appear Solid | How to create. Can linetypes have their own scale in model space like dimensions can? View 9 Replies View Related AutoCad 2D :: From Dashed Lines In Model To Continuous In Layout? the scale factor for 3/16 = 64 so i entered 64, then tried 1/64, then random numbers - nothing is changing the appearance. PSLTSCALE variable, change the setting then REGENALL. Set MSLTSCALE to 1 and the annotative scaling handles the rest.That’s OK for Layouts, but doesn’t work when you go back to model space. With 2009 Annotative scaling was introduced so a new variable, MSLTSCALE, controls the above for you in a more automated manner. This is adjusting the CELTSCALE for those lines only. Leave CELTSCALE set to 1, if you need to adjust some individual lines then click on them, go to properties and adjust the linetype scale there. When you move to PS set LTSCALE to 1 or 0.5, you may have to hit regen. I.E.: plot scale to be 1/4"=1'-0", then while in MS set LTSCALE to 48.
In Model Space set LTSCALE to the intended plot scale. You don't say which version of AutoCAD you are using, so prior to v2009 the following will be the best place to start.
If someone would be kind enough to brief me on how to set up all of the LTSCALE's and whatnot, it would be MUCH appreciated. How can I see the same scale in both MS and PS? Is that possible?Īnother problem is that some of my viewports display the hidden lines in one scale, and others in another scale, and others yet don't display as hidden at all. Using LTSCALE, I tweaked the scale of the lines in PAPER space, but couldn't get those changes to effect model space. In model space, they show up as a continuous line. I have a bunch of lines in my drawing that are set to the HIDDEN linetype.
For the life of me I cannot figure out how to set up all LTSCALE/PSLTSCALE/CELTSCALE to suit my needs.
