Problem: Snapshots change scale when adjusting rotation in properties tab

MKnighton

When I adjust the rotation of a snapshot using the properties tab, the scale changes as well. Why?

I can't reproduce this, so it doesn't seem to be a "feature." Have you updated recently? Should you?

MKnighton

Luke, this only occurs after inserting a snapshot at scale from a tool chest into a plan sheet of a different scale.

The steps are:

1. Take a snapshot
2. paste it on the page
3. right click and add to tool chest
4. set scale of tool chest to match original snapshot page
5. go to a new page with a different scale setting
6. select the scaled tool from the tool chest and add it to the new page
7. assign a rotation from the properties tab

You'll notice that the scale changes after rotating the scales snapshot.

@Luke Shiras Can you reproduce this problem? Any thoughts on fixes?

Luke Shiras

I'll give it a try in the morning.

@MKnighton I followed your instructions, and the first time I tried it, the scale seemed to jump. I then undid my actions, and I noticed the scale went from 130 to 120 and then 110. So I tried it again, and the scale didn't change after that. I deleted the original snapshot tool, tried three times, and couldn't reproduce the results.
