Topics in this section

• Set Plot Scale

  When you specify a scale to output your drawing, you can choose from a list of real-world scales, enter your own scale, or select Fit to Paper to scale the drawing to fit onto the selected paper size.

• Set Shaded Viewport Options

  You can choose among several options for plotting shaded and rendered viewports. You can plot a viewport as it is displayed, in wireframe, with hidden lines removed, or as rendered.

• Set Options for Plotted Objects

  In the Plot and the Page Setup dialog boxes, you can choose from options that affect how objects are plotted.

• Use Plot Styles to Control Plotted Objects

  You can control many aspects of how an object is plotted by using plot styles.

• Use Color-Dependent Plot Style Tables

  By using color-dependent plot styles to control how objects are plotted, you ensure that all objects that share the same color are plotted the same way.

• Use Named Plot Style Tables

  You can only create, delete, and apply plot styles in a named plot style table. You can define as many or as few plot styles as you need in a drawing.

• Change Plot Style Settings

  You can modify plot styles using the Plot Style Table Editor. Changes you make to a plot style affect the objects to which that plot style is assigned.
