Hi Andrew,

When placing a point in a layout it gives an incorrcet display, for example if I place a cross point style I get a rather strange shape in return!

Many thanks

Clive

Thanks for your report.

Please attach your drawing file, so I can try to reproduce the problem here, thanks.

Hi Andrew,

Thanks, unfortunately I cannot attach the file as it is under a non disclosure agreement, but I will try to reproduce the problem on a new drawing and test it, I'll update you as to what happens.

Many thanks

Hi Andrew,

Still same behavior for me in a new drawing,if you change the point to mode 2, size 10 and see if you get the same result as me, fine in models space but not in layout/print preview!

Many thanks

Are you perhaps referring to the fact that in the layout the points are shown much smaller? This is intended behaviour as the point display mode only affects display not printing or the print preview (there are no pixels or pixel sizes for a printer).

If that's not what you mean, please attach the drawing file or a screenshot, so I can reproduce the problem here. It seems to behave correctly here.

Thanks. I somehow cannot produce that kind of output here..
Thanks anyway for your report. I will look into it if it pops up again.
