Evolution Posted October 24, 2019 Share Posted October 24, 2019 My search of the forum didn’t bring a topic up addressing this particular question. How do I adjust the size of a perspective view before I send it to layout? Is that in editing the active camera settings? When is end to layout it is so small you can’t see any detail. Grabbing the drag handle and doing a concentric enlarge makes the view blurred. I know it is a simple answer, but I haven’t found it yet?

mattyt12 Posted October 24, 2019 Share Posted October 24, 2019 zoom in and update the view, the closer you zoom in the finer it will refresh but when you print it will automatically update to the final quality. This could be wrong but I believe its the way chief handles images to keep things running faster/smoother and not bog down. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Thanks Try sending to Layout as an Image instead it is usually about twice the size. The Up or Downside depending on your point of view, is that the Image is NOT live and thus does NOT update on it's own - just resend the (saved+named) camera view if needed. Mick.

Mick, I’ve been doing PNG images (versus using PDF) I was hoping I find a way to just send to layout. thanks Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

winterdd Posted October 25, 2019 Share Posted October 25, 2019 i personally like to export the orthographic views. they become live and you can adjust the scale. prints extremely well too. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
