Set Sheet Scale command

Using the Set Sheet Scale command

The Set Sheet Scale command serves several purposes:

You can undo or redo a sheet scale change.

Manual sheet scale mode

You can set the sheet scale manually by typing a scale value or selecting a scale when you select the User-Defined Sheet Scale button on the Set Sheet Scale command bar.

Changing a sheet scale manually does not change the drawing view scale of an existing drawing view.

Associative sheet scale mode

You can use the associative sheet scale mode to derive the sheet scale from the scale of an existing drawing view. This makes the sheet scale associative to the drawing view scale. When you select the Drawing View Scale button on the Set Sheet Scale command bar, you are prompted to select a drawing view with the scale you want to use.

When a drawing view from which the sheet scale is derived is transferred to another sheet, the sheet scale is reclassified as being user-defined. Similarly, when a drawing view from which the sheet scale is derived is deleted, the sheet scale is reclassified as user-defined.
