Hello all.?ÿ After 25 years of management I am learning to draft/setup templates, etc?ÿ ?ÿI am using Carlson w/Intelicad.

I am having a challenge with scaling from Mspace to Pspace.?ÿ ?ÿIn my settings the drawing is set at 20 scale. The line type scaler is 0.50 and LTSCALE is 10 (which in itself doesn't quite make sense to me.. should my LTSCALE be 20?).?ÿ

Main challenge right now is the drawing looks right in Mspace but when I go to Pspace the line work within the viewport is scaled wrong (its way bigger).?ÿ ?ÿPSLTSCALE is ON.?ÿ ?ÿ

If I select the vport my settings are as follows:

Annotation Scale: 1"-1'?ÿ

Standard Scale: 1:20

Custom Scale: 0.05

Not sure anymore what settings to play with as I feel I have tried them all.?ÿ What am I missing.

In a similar sounding application, I always have PSLTSCALE & MSLTSCALE = 1, LTSCALE = 0.4 and all entities having a (default) linetype scale = 1.0

I couldn't edit that last post (because of the spinny circle of death the others have noticed here recently) but wanted to add that with those setiing it doesn't matter what my viewport scaling is (1:20, 1:200, etc), all line work plots the same.
