18.25. - When we start a new detail drawing, oftentimes we don't know for sure

what scale to use in order to comfortably fit the necessary views in the sheet. In

these instances, when the drawing sheet is too big or too small, we can change

the sheet's and/or an individual view's scale. In this case, the best scale to fit the

views in this sheet needs to be 1:1 , which means the drawing is the exact size as

the real part. To change or confirm the scale is correct, right-mouse-click in the

sheet (not a drawing view), or in the sheet's name in the FeatureManager, and

from the pop-up menu select "Properties."
