Layout Book (Scale) /Floor Plan (Exit Sign)

[Anonymous]

Hi Everyone,

I wanted to see if anyone knew a quick fix for these two items below. I am using ArchiCAD 19.


1)Power/Data plans
I wasn't able to fix the exit sign arrow issue (image attached). I am being asked to change the arrows to point towards the door.


2) Wall/Detail Section:
I wasn't able to fix the scale issue (image attached). I change the scale to 1 1/2" = 1'-0" but then the drawing becomes too big and goes off the page. Then when I scale it back to a normal size it doesn't keep the scale size and reverts to a smaller scale.

Thanks

Your screen shot shows that the Wall Section's original scale is 1/4"=1'-0". Drawings should be created at their output scale so text and other non-model elements size correctly. If the Wall Section is to be output at 1 1/2"=1'-0" scale, then go back to the original Wall Section, change its scale to 1 1/2"=1'-0" and adjust the text elements.

You should add a Signature to your Profile (click the Profile button near the top of this page) with your ArchiCAD version and operating system (see mine for an example) for more accurate help in this forum.
