Resizing Blocks

Here is a great way to resize annotation blocks in your drawing if they are the wrong size (i.e. the drawing scale was set-up wrong).

  • Right-click on a block and you will find a command near the bottom called Select Similar (when you press it all the blocks of that name will be selected).
  • If your Properties Palette is not displayed press Ctrl 1 to display it.
  • In your Properties palette set the Scale X, Scale Y, and Scale Z to the new scale number.
  • Repeat for all appropriate blocks.
