    How Can I Scale A Drawing?

    How can I draw something that's larger than the print size? I've looked and looked. I searched the help menu. It only tells what what 'Scale' does, not where it is or how to use it.

    All I want to do is draw a part that's 72" X 96".


    BTW, I did search this forum before posting.

    By the time that I'm fluent with Dolphin, everyone will be able to find the answer to their inquiries (because of my many questions).

    Go under the "View" menu and choose "Properties" You will see on the screen that pops up is paper size. You want to select the down arrow and then change that option to "Custom Size-user defined" and then enter in the size you want it to be right below that. I hope this helps.
