Hi,

I have an A1 drawing sheet which I have just dropped my Ground Floor Plan into. The GF Plan was drawn at a scale of 1:100, but needs to be at a scale of 1:500 on the drawing sheet. When I change the viewport scale to 1:500, all the Grids and text stay at a scale of 1:100 (huge). I s there a way to bring the scale of he grids and text in line with the viewport scale?

Thanks

There really is no viewport in Revit. You change the scale of the actual view.  If in your view you changed your scale from 1:100 to 1:500 the text will automatically change so you are doing something incorrect.

Hi,

Any idea what I am doing wrong?  I presume there is some setting I need to adjust?

Thanks

Grid bubbles and text are annotation and have no scale. They stay the same size on the sheet regardless of the scale of the view, so a 1/2" grid bubble will always print at 1/2".
