    Hi Eric,

     

    Thanks for your help. I should have clarified that I am on a MAC. I’ll give it a try again with a new project I am working on now. 

     

    1. Do you start the page size using any particular scale?  In SU you can select Preferences then Template and a variety of formats are shown.  Do you use the “Architectural Feet and Inches” template or the “Plan View Feet and Inches” template to start with? 

     

    2. Also, before I begin any drawing, under Document Setup, I can un-select the “Fit View to Page” box.  But not until I adjust the Camera view to Parallel Projection can I then change the Print Scale so that 1.25″ in Drawing equals 40′ in Model.  Given that, do you even concern yourself with this adjustment? Or do you just open a new template and begin drawing, adjusting the dwg scale omce you are ready to print?  I guess what confuses me if if one zooms in and out, how do you know when you are at 1:1? hmmm…

    Daniel! You’re a genius!!!

    I don’t know how I did it before but I “right” clicked on the mouse, and selected Edit Group as u suggested. Maybe I’m just getting mixed up with CAD since I am learning that now, too!

    THANKS!!!

    p.s. I have thoroughly LOVED your webinars! And that they are recorded for me to watch ad nauseam is a total perk plus!

    Hi Erdal,

    To add to the list of great Arboretums and Botanical Gardens…San Francisco Botanical Garden @ Strybing Arboretum. http://www.sfbotanicalgarden.org/

    Perhaps you can contact a curator there or their library and see where that will get you.

    Good luck!
