In order for a scale to be selected, it must be defined and included on the list. Scale Lists can also be used to quickly set a scale for viewports created in a layout tab. Scales can easily be selected from the list to automatically resize any annotative content, like lineweights and annotative text, dimensions, and multi-leaders. The AutoCAD Scale List is a list of pre-defined drawing and annotation scales that are saved in a drawing file. When the number of these items in a file increases, so does the file size, which hinders drawing performance. Two of the most common contributors to abnormal file size and poor drawing performance are Scale Lists, and RegApps. When these types of issues occur, one of the first things we look at is file size (is the file larger than expected) and file cleanup tools.
The Ideate tech team has seen a recent increase in cases related to poor performance, slow opening and saving of files, and a number of crashes when using basic AutoCAD commands. Posted on FebruAuthor: Matt Miyamoto AutoCAD
