updating scale in plotmaker

Anonymous
Not applicable
I'm having trouble getting the scale to change in plotmaker. I have changed and redefined the scale of the view set in archicad and sent my changes but when I update my drawing in plotmaker the scale does not change (nor do layer setting for that matter). I have the drawing settings to use the same attributes as in preferences, but still nothing. I know I have made this work before but am flummoxed by this problem.
Thanks

make sure that your placed drawing update preferences are set to inherit it's 'scale' attribute from archicad . . . see attached screenshot:

Also, you should select the drawing and check the settings here.
