00:00:00,000 --> 00:00:07,000
This is tutorial number 127 and it covers the view scale with ThinkTAV5.

2
00:00:07,000 --> 00:00:13,000
 To start off, open up tutorial part number 127 which is located on the DVD.

3
00:00:13,000 --> 00:00:20,000
 Now what we're going to do in this tutorial is I'm going to go over how to scale the drawings that you have.

4
00:00:20,000 --> 00:00:29,000
 So what we have is our front, our left, our bottom, and our isometric view along with a detailed view.

5
00:00:29,000 --> 00:00:33,000
 Now this detailed view that we have here, right now it's 2 to 1.

6
00:00:33,000 --> 00:00:37,000
Say we want to make it bigger and this is the same with all the drawings that we have.

7
00:00:37,000 --> 00:00:44,000
 All you have to do is right click, go to properties, and then in the scale you're able to change it.

8
00:00:44,000 --> 00:00:47,000
 So right now the scale is 2 to 1.

9
00:00:47,000 --> 00:00:50,000
 Let's make it 3 to 1.

10
00:00:50,000 --> 00:00:52,000
 Click OK.

11
00:00:52,000 --> 00:00:55,000
 And now our drawing's gotten bigger.

12
00:00:55,000 --> 00:00:58,000
 Now if we do it again, go to properties.

13
00:00:58,000 --> 00:01:00,000
 Bring this to the side.

14
00:01:00,000 --> 00:01:02,000
 Make it 5.

15
00:01:02,000 --> 00:01:05,000
 Just click apply and you're able to see how big it is.

16
00:01:05,000 --> 00:01:08,000
 So if you want it a 5 to 1, click OK.

17
00:01:08,000 --> 00:01:12,000
Now you've made your scale, you're drawing 5 times as big.

18
00:01:12,000 --> 00:01:15,000
 And this goes for all the drawings too.

19
00:01:15,000 --> 00:01:18,000
 Let's click on the isometric one and let's make it bigger.

20
00:01:18,000 --> 00:01:21,000
 So let's right click, click properties.

21
00:01:21,000 --> 00:01:23,000
 Let's make it 2 to 1.

22
00:01:23,000 --> 00:01:25,000
 Click OK.

23
00:01:25,000 --> 00:01:28,000
 And now we've made our drawing 2 to 1.

24
00:01:28,000 --> 00:01:36,000
 Now when you're making your drawings, the front top inside you, they should all be dimension the same.

25
00:01:36,000 --> 00:01:39,000
 Sorry, scale to the same scale.

26
00:01:39,000 --> 00:01:44,000
 With your isometric, it can be the same or it can be bigger or smaller.

27
00:01:44,000 --> 00:01:52,000
Now the idea for me usually is that whatever space it's able to fill up, I make it that big.

28
00:01:52,000 --> 00:02:02,000
 So I think the bigger, the better for an isometric view or a pictorial view because it's there to show you what it should look like all around.

29
00:02:02,000 --> 00:02:09,000
 And after you put all your dimensions and tolerances in, showing it exactly as big as it can be, I think is a great help.

30
00:02:09,000 --> 00:02:12,000
 So right now it's 2 to 1.

31
00:02:12,000 --> 00:02:14,000
 Let's make this one smaller this time.

32
00:02:14,000 --> 00:02:20,000
So let's click properties and we'll change it and make it 1 to 2.

33
00:02:20,000 --> 00:02:22,000
 Click OK.

34
00:02:22,000 --> 00:02:24,000
 And now it's half the size.

35
00:02:24,000 --> 00:02:34,000
 So by using the scale, you're able to scale all your drawings from larger to bigger or bigger to smaller, whatever it may be.

36
00:02:34,000 --> 00:02:46,000
 This allows you to utilize the space that you have on your sheet and just as a reminder, whatever your front, left and bottom or your top and side views are.

37
00:02:46,000 --> 00:02:56,000
Make sure that they're all dimension to the same scale. It just keeps everything more consistent and it allows a greater degree of accuracy from your drawings.

38
00:02:56,000 --> 00:03:24,000
 And that concludes our tutorial on the Eb scale with Inkitia V5.
