How do I get different scales in Paper space? I am trying to draw up some plans for a house renovation. I have the plan that I have drawn 1:1. I have an A1 paper with 1:50 from the drawing preferences. Does this mean that the plan on an A1 sized paper is 1:50?
I want to create a drawing with a 1:50 plan and 1:100 location plan. How do I do this? Do I have to do the plan then make the location plan half the size in Model Space? I'm confused.
I am new to QCAD but familiar with AutoCAD.
I've looked for the answer but can't seem to find it, so apologies if this has already been answered.
Thank you

Thanks andrew
I have looked at this page. It explains how to create viewports but not how to scale the drawing within them individually. How do I do this?

New Viewport:
When you launch the "Add Viewport" tool an option bar pops up - just determine the scale or rotation.
Existing Viewport:
Select the Viewport and adjust within the "Property Editor" the scale to your needs.
