Changing Cross Section Sheet Preferences
You can use the Sheet Manager ä Settings command to control several cross
section sheet preferences. These preferences control margins, scales, and volume
calculation methods.
You must adjust many of the Cross Section Preferences prior to generating a
cross section sheet series. The default options may not properly generate the
sheets. For example, be sure that the Horizontal Scale is appropriate to the
width of the cross sections that you sampled in your drawing. For example, in
imperial units, if you set the horizontal scale to 50, a section that was sampled
with a swath width of 200c on the left and 200c on the right would take up 8s
on a paper space sheet (to cover the entire 400c).
Be sure to check the default Border Spacing and Internal Section spacing values.
By default, these units are 1, which means that in metric units, 1 unit in paper
space (one meter) is equal to 1 meter of model space. A more appropriate value
would be something like .01.
