Scale List Fix
Submitted by rkmcswain on Tue, 04/29/2008 - 06:58So you have installed SP1 and you know how to fix drawings with a bloated scale list. But what if you have dozens or hundreds or thousands of "infected" drawings each containing hundreds of scale list entries?
Autodesk has released a tool to fix these bloated drawings. You can select any number of drawings and batch process them.
Bloated Scale List
Submitted by rkmcswain on Thu, 12/20/2007 - 12:01One of the problems that has plagued AutoCAD 2008 and it's verticals has been the bloated scale list. Scale list entries are propagated from drawing to drawing similar to the way named layer filters did back in AutoCAD 2002.
You may not even be aware that this problem exists in some of your drawings. To take a peek, click on the Annotation Scale popup located in the AutoCAD status bar. If you get something that looks like the image below, it's time to clean up.
