Description

Procedure SetLScale sets the scale of the referenced layer.

Calculating the Scale:

To calculate the scale parameter from an architecural scale, the following formula may be used:

denominator/numerator * true size(in inches) = ActualSize

For example, to calculate a scale of 3/8"=1'-0", the scale parameter would be 8/3 *12 = 32.

PROCEDURE SetLScale(
           h       :HANDLE;
           scale   :REAL);

def vs.SetLScale(h, scale):
    return None

Parameters

h		HANDLE		Handle to layer.
scale		REAL		Scale value for layer.

Example

VectorScript

SetLScale(HandleToLayer,96);
{sets the referenced layer to a scale of 1/8" = 1'}
