Enlarged detail section

Post by cjs94 » Mon Jul 14, 2014 3:11 pm

Hi,

I'm not sure what is the correct terminology here, but what is the correct way to draw an enlarged (i.e. scaled up) view of a small detail on a much larger drawing? If I copy and scale up the section, the dimensions are obviously no longer correct. I can alter the scale factor for each dimension, but that seems awkward and error prone, and makes me feel that it's probably the 'wrong' way to do it.

I've just found the answer to this in the tips and tricks forum. Sorry for the noise!
