View scale denominator on current drawing

[cjohansson-2]

I have changed the view scale denominator in the config.pro file to 60.

I have some drawings created before I changed this.

In the bottom left corner it says a value that is ok but in the drawing sheet the value has the old format.

Does someone know how to solve this?

Claes,

1. view_scale_denominator is detail option, not config.pro option. It is included in detail option file (.dtl extension)
2. config.pro can contain drawing_setup_file option which points to detail option file
3. when user creates a new drawing Creo copies the content of detail option file into the drawing
4. to change view_scale_denominator setting in existing drawing, you have modify the value of this detail option inside the drawing (or load modified detail option file into the drawing)

Yes, you are right. I changed it in the detail option file.

I tried to change the settings for existing drawing this way:

Prepare, Drawing properties->Detail options

It says that view_scale_denominator value is 60.

When I double click my only view and select scale the value is:

Default to sheet (1:3)

But my sheet still says 3:20!

Claes,

OK, view_scale_denominator is set properly. Now you have to modify scale value. What value do you want to see on your drawing ? Upload a picture, if the problem persists after modification.

I modified scale value to different values.(1:1, 1:2 1:3)

But whatever i set it to, the drawing sheet still says it is 3:20!

It seems like the sheet have lost its link or something.

Is there any way to reload it or?

Claes,

did you double-clicked the value 3:20 inside the window and did you modify it ?

No, I haven´t changed it manually (as far as I can remember).

Nothing happens if I try to doubleclick it.
