Scale in view map and layout

Llian — Tue, 23 May 2023 01:08:00 GMT

My drawing of a building in view map is set to 1/4" scale.
My elevations of the different bathroom types are drawn in the worksheet to scale 1/2".
In my layout sheet, I bring in the individual bathroom plans from view map and change the scale to 1/2" to match with the elevations.

I am noticing the symbol from the view map doesn't scale down to 1/2". Please see the M5 label in plan and elevation.

Is there a setting?

This is the problem. Create the plan at the scale it will be output. Text and other notations are sized according to scale (they are in paper dimensions, not model dimensions), so they are getting resized if the original scale of the drawing is changed. If the plan will also be used at 1/4" scale for other Views, create a new View at 1/2" scale for the bathroom plan.
