Sheet / Viewport Scale Question
I have created a sheet with a cropped section of my design layer. I've increased the scale to add additional detail. When I create dimensions on the sheet, it shows in actual inches of the drawing. How do I make it show the actual length. My scale is set for 1/4" = 1'. For example. One of the lines is showing 3 1/2". It should be showing as 14'. It dimensions correctly on the design layer. Is there a setting I'm missing to make the scale show correctly on a sheet?
Thanks,

You should add the dimensions using annotations to the viewport. it appears you are dimensioning on the 1:1 sheet layer. Double click the viewport or right-click and it the dialog box that appears, check the edit annotations button. Once in the annotations area, you can dimension the items in the viewport
Good Luck-

Bob, Thank you! That worked. I knew there was a way to do, just could not figure it out.
