robdyck Posted June 4, 2023 Share Posted June 4, 2023 Does Layout Line Scaling work anymore? I have a few layer sets in almost all my plans that I print out on different size paper and at different scales than the actual home plans and none of my line weights match anymore. Is anyone else having this same issue? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
TeaTime Posted June 5, 2023 Share Posted June 5, 2023 Made a quick PDF, line weights 5-60 -- seems fine to me What's your Page Setup - Light Weight scaling set to? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

My typical plan file has Arch D pages set at 1/4" scale. The issue I had was using a 17x11 layout file with a plan sent to layout at 1:200 scale. The layout line weights wouldn't scale. Rather they adhered to the plan file settings. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
robdyck Posted June 5, 2023 Author Share Posted June 5, 2023 I've had other layout file issues, like text printing in italics when it isn't supposed to. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Yeah, I remember that post - that sounds definitely more like a Font thing though. I'd have to assume Line Weights would be handled totally differently. But yeah, same set of lines w/ 1:50 Layout scaling @ 1:200: Not sure why it would be any different for you - prob need to send it in to chief.

I have a feeling they are both related to bringing forward older files into X15. I copy and re-use an awful lot of files! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
TeaTime Posted June 5, 2023 Share Posted June 5, 2023 Even more reason to send it in! If it's a carry over, they need to look at how to better handle those old legacy settings. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
robdyck Posted June 5, 2023 Author Share Posted June 5, 2023 And my italics issues only happens on some layout files and only to some text boxes, not all of them. It's a bit weird! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
