Question
Hi,

I'm working in AutoCAD Architecture 2008.I set a viewport to scale and lock it,when I try to move it,it automatically changes scale, this also happens when I try to dimension in the viewport. This did not happen on the older versions of AutoCAD Architecture, do you have any suggestions what I can do to avoid this?

Answer
Does this only happen on one particular drawing??  Have you downloaded the service packs for Autocad Architecture 20008 yet??

Without seeing this happen on my system, it's a tough one to trouble shoot.  Do you have anyone elses computer you can try the drawing out on to see if it does it there as well??  Can you make a really simple drawing and make this happen??

Sorry, no answer at the moment, I think I need more information.
