Is there a better way to control object properties that are inserted into Mathcad? I am using Mathcad 2001, whenever I edit an autocad object the object resizes itself. This takes time because I have to zoom out to find the corners of the object before scaling to fit on one page.

Am I doing something wrong?

thanks

I have found that it is easier to put a MathCad object into AutoCad.
 
What is TK? Is it similar to Mathcad?
 
I discovered that if I first set my Autocad active working window to be a smaller size and then copy from that window and paste into Mathcad that the pasted image is smaller. I typically do not try to paste as an Autocad editable entity but instead as a picture entity.

Hope that works for you.
 
Hey- it works! Thanks for the tip.
