Change all models annotation scale at once

How can I change all the models in a file to the same annotation scale at one time?

Better yet I would like to be able to select certain models in the model dialog and choose the desired scale.

Is there a way to achieve this or do I need to file a CR?

  • I would look into Project Explorer (PE) and Element Information to do this.  There is a small caveat to this though. For us to know about a models annotation scale it must first be read into memory. So you must open each model, you can do this by double clicking on the models in PE.  Once you have them in memory select the models you want to change and then right click choose properties.  In element information you should be able to change the models annotation scale.

    Presumably this is individually, unless we can now open muliple models at once.

  • Stuart,

    When a fiel is opened we only read the active model into memory.  As you open more models from the same file we retain certain parts of the models in memory.  You would need to open each model in the same session.  Once this is done we have enough information to allow you to change multiple annotation scales at once.

  • Right now I can be in any model in a file and open the model dialog, select a model and then select properties and change the annotation scale. There is no need to open multiple models or files. Wouldn't be ideal if you could select the models as if you were selecting file in windows explorer and then be able to change the annotation scale through properties? Going through PE  is not an easier solution
