      I need to have a drawing in 2 pages but in different scale each one.
      I know i can change the scale in the view port, but i wonder if there is a fastest way to copy and rescale the whole drawing in one step ?? ( including text, dimensions, etc. that the first one already has )

      Thanks

        I think scaling one viewport differently from the other is the fastest and easiest way to go about it. You certainly don't need a second party product for this. As for dealing with the text and dimensions, are they placed in LO or in SU? If in LO, you can probably just resize the text to a new point size although you might need to adjust text box sizes. Dimensions might need to be moved relative to the model, too.

          1 Scale the viewport while pressing both CTRL and SHIFT Keys (windows) and it scales centered and porportionally.

          2 Go to model tray and change model scale. You should now have exactly the same view at a diffrent scale...

          PS: Of course you should match the scale of the viewport with the model scale. I.E. scale from 1:100 to 1:50 means 2 times bigger viewport in step 1

            Sorry not true... CTRL copies the viewport while scaling... The differences between SU and LO, always bother me!
