What i'm trying to do is scale my drawings in their mviews. I know that when you want something in 1/4" (architectural) scale, you type in zoom- 1/48 xp, but I don't know the #s to put in for engineering scales. If anyone can help me, post on here or IM me @ Stacybg

thanks :) and good luck to all teams!

Firstly....I am going to try and convinve you to use inventor...it is soooo let me repeat.......SOOOOOOO much better than autocad...in my opinion.


From what i remember you need to type 1/4 xp ... for architectual..u did 1/48 because of the inch to feet converison

give that a try ..and i will look for a better answer

Gabe, I would say inventor is easier before I would say better.
