madcowscarnival Posted Thursday at 10:14 PM Share Posted Thursday at 10:14 PM I've never performed this operation before and don't know the correct way to search. I sent a camera view (general reference for a guy) to the layout. The "picture" on layout I want to scale down to fit in a smaller area on the sheet. However, when I use "hold C drag corner" resizing, it just resizes the bounding box, and clips the picture, which remains the original size. Is it possible to resize/scale down the camera view? Unlike the ortho view where I could simply send over at a smaller scale, the options in scaling are grayed out. Thanks all. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

DBCooper Posted Friday at 12:31 AM Share Posted Friday at 12:31 AM I think you might have better luck changing the scale instead. You can do this using the rescale button or using the layout box dialog Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I resize using the X, and then crop by pulling in the top, bottom, left or right part of the layout box Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

kMoquin Posted Friday at 02:46 PM Share Posted Friday at 02:46 PM If you open the dbx for the image you can set the size precisely while retaining the aspect ratio. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
