HELP – I have a problem with line type scales. I am revising drawing for a high rise office building consisting of two towers, on a seven story base that covers a city block, and involves 83 floor plans, including the underground garage. I am using a dashed line (LineType = Dashed) for various purposes. In most of the drawings a LineType Scale of 1 gives the results that I want, and can be scaled to the drawing scale using PaperSpace. I have a few drawings that need a LineType Scale of 12 to give the same result; the line looks and prints solid otherwise. All LineTypes are ByLayer. I have printed out the System Variables of drawings of each condition, and have found only minor differences such and the GridUnit or SnapUnit. I have even changed these variables to match without getting the lines to read correctly. I have reloaded the LineType for the Dashed Line, and still can not get the lines to read correctly. Maybe the LineType isn't reloading? Does anyone have any suggestions. David Harrier
