Work with Linetypes | 199
■ The Linetype Manager displays the Global Scale Factor and Current Object
Scale. The Global Scale Factor value controls the
LTSCALE system variable,
which changes the linetype scale globally for both new and existing
objects.
■ The Current Object Scale value controls the CELTSCALE system variable,
which sets the linetype scale for new objects.
The
CELTSCALE value is multiplied by the LTSCALE value to get the displayed
linetype scale. You can easily change linetype scales in your drawing either
individually or globally.
In a layout, you can adjust the scaling of linetypes in different viewports with
PSLTSCALE.
To change the linetype scale of selected objects
1 Select the objects whose linetype scale you want to change.
2 Right-click one of the objects and click Properties on the shortcut menu.
