Thank you soo much!! Not being able to solve all these problems with scales etc, almost caused that I would start hating autocad for ever. One of the best explanation about autocad on the internet. Keep doing such useful videos.
Thanks for responding.My question is in regards to operating procedures for making line types, text, dimensions, Mleaders annotative in AutoCAD 2015.Is there a procedure? Must the annotative options be selected prior to beginning the dwg or may they be selected in the middle of a project. Is there a best order for selection.Thanks for your good work.
+tommy morphis Sorry - for some reason your comments were waiting for approval, which is unusual. Setting annotative settings is much quicker ahead of time. Which is why a good template file goes a LONG ways to making drawings easier. You can always fix later but it will be more painful.
Jeremy,Thanks again. Would it be too much for me to ask about fixing during a project as opposed to setting at the beginning? I have just been changing annotation and styles for text, dimensions and Mleaders at the request of a client. This resulted in a crash. I lost some work. Best,Tommy
+tommy morphis It is not something that is easy to explain in a short youtube comment. Set up the styles and move the entities over to the styles using the properties palette. Attach the required annotation scales. But there are a lot of quirks about the process. If crashing is an on-going issue, make sure you purge, audit, and don't attach any unnecessary scales to any annotative objects. If still crashing, start with a fresh file.
A great, and benifical, tutorial, thanks a load. is there an order of operation for setting lines, text, dimensions and Mleader to annotative? Only when beginning a project? At any time during a project?
+tommy morphis It is certainly easiest at the beginning, although possible to fix later. It will just be more difficult then. I would always set the text style first because it is used in the other styles (mleaders and dims).
What if a consultant has his Ltscale set up to the traditional setting (option 1), and you use his linework as the background (xref), can you revise the consultants Ltscale setting afterwards to the 'New Settings" style?
If the consultant has the LTSCALE at 1, you wouldn't need to change anything... just set the MSLTSCALE to 1 in your host file and you're good to go. Give it a try.

+tommy morphis Lines are a different animal so set any time, they have no connection to the annotative objects which are text based.
