Custom drawing scale
Custom drawing scale
(OP)
In a drawing view, you have a choice of "Use sheet scale", and "Use custom scale"; Is it possible to add a custom scale to the drop-down menu, such as 1:8 or 1:16 ? If only there was faster way than going to "User Defined: > then manually enter scale.

RE: Custom drawing scale
There is, all you have to do is ask.
...I'm guessing you'd like to know? If so go to:
http://kcswug.com/programs/macros/
and download "ScaleDrawingSheetAnnoText.swp". Now open up one of your drawings and then run the macro.
Does this help?

RE: Custom drawing scale
But, not to sound ungrateful, but is there a way to change the values of the "toggle" switches into whole numbers only? For example, the first textbox has a "1", and the 2nd textbox has a "2".
Instead of 2 > 2.5 >3 >3.5 >4, how could I modify it so it jumps from 2 > 3 > 4?
Thanks,
Flores
RE: Custom drawing scale
TextBoxDenom.value = TextBoxDenom.value + 0.5
to this
TextBoxDenom.value = Int(TextBoxDenom.value + 1)
And for the SpinButtonDown procedures, change
TextBoxDenom.value = TextBoxDenom.value - 0.5
to this
TextBoxDenom.value = Int(TextBoxDenom.value - 1)
