Hi All,

How can I change te scale format of mij view. Please see the pic's below. I'v typed 1:30, the display of my view gives 0.0333:1.0. When I open the view style dialog again the scale format also say's it's: 0.0333:1.0 in stead of het more "readable" 1:30

I understand it's the same scale vallue expect it doesn't look good to me. And yes I'm aware of the fact that im not using "standard" scale vallues :)

I'd like just to show the drawing view label to show as 1:30 and also in the dialog box this should be nice, if not common sense :)

That setting is for the view scale and not the view label format - you need to look down that list & expand the Section area. Under that should be the view label settings where you can turn the label & scale off & on as well as set the view scale value format (Ratio, Common Fraction, Single Line Fraction or Scale factorx -> 5x).

At least that's how it is in NX11. Wouldn't be surprised if they've changed it and failed to document it which part of that new Continuous Beta Testing Release.
