Annotation Scale
via keyin
To set the annotation scale of a model via a keyin, use this one:
model set annotationscale [value]
Note: The
value
is derived from the
Scale
column found in the
.../workspace/system/data/scales.def
file or you can calculate them manually.
Metric: For a model scale of
1:50
use a value of
50
.
Imperial: For a model scale of
1/2"=1'-0"
use a value of
24
