Scale in Archicad?

Anonymous

How can I scale a drawing? When I go to "scale (floor plan)" my drawing is only zoomed, not scaled. For examples if I draw square 10x10 in scale 1:100, if I go to "scale (floor plan) end change scale to 1:10, square dimensions won't change. How can change it to be 1x1 or 100x100? Thanks.

Try the "Resize" command.

In ArchiCAD you always draw at 1:1.
The scale commands are only used for the output (print, export) so you can see, on the screen, the correct proportion between "real" elements (1:1) and other things like annotations, text, dims, markers, etc.
