Scaled elevations
In my manual I read where you cannot scale your elevation views (3Dviews) for a layout in a border drawing for blueprints. Is this correct or is there a workaround?

What that entry in the manual means is that there is no "entry or check box" dialogue to automatically scale an isometric view. By using common sense and a "known" dimension one can scale a 3-D with reasonable relational accuracy.

David- To be more specific, if I go to camera view, front elevation, and save this view to a layout page, can I print the view in 1/4" or 1/8" scale? eg. Front, rear, and sides on one page. Dan

Read chapter 37 "Layout Facility" ("Rescaling Views" Section) in your user manual and also Chapter 36 "Printing and Plotting" ie. the "Printing to Scale" section.
