Normal scale

The Normal Scale command automatically displays the drawing file at 100% of its real-world scale. For example, if a drawing scale is set to 1:1, every inch on the monitor corresponds to an inch on paper. Normal scale is the scale at which the drawing is printed.

To set the drawing to normal scale:

Select the command.

Vectorworks changes the view so that the objects’ screen size and print size are the same.

If the drawing size is larger than the monitor’s dimensions, scroll or pan around the drawing to see all elements.
