drawing template view scale
drawing template view scale
(OP)
What controls the scale of the resulting view when you use a drawing template that has predefined views? I thought it would inherit the view scale of the template or possibly scale the views so that they all fit on the paper size chosen, but this does not seem to be the case. If you take the file I have attached and create a new drawing with the supplied templates (eg A0 with views), the views will be at 1/2 scale.
I would like the views to be at full scale.

Anyway, I modified a copy of the original A0 drawing template, editing the views so that they were larger, and have attached it below. Just replace the existing file in the UGII/templates folder (rename the old file first just in case you wish to go back to it). Once you've done that, restart NX and try your part test over again.

To an Engineer, the glass is twice as big as it needs to be.

So these predefined views will not have an automatic boundary that expands to fit the part?
If I need to tinker more with the view size what is the best method? Do I delete the predefined views and bring in a part similar in size to what I expect, or is there more to it than that?
