SOME IDIOT!!!... (probably me...) somehow set "Rattan" to a scale value of 1. Every time I roll over that pattern in the list it takes 20 seconds to load the thumbnail and then locks up the computer. I lose data since last saved, it's a whole thing. Anyway, is there a way I can change the scale of "rattan" without selecting it in the patterns list? I tried to do it in the "manage" window, but the same problem there. It just locks up the computer.

Hi George,

The default scale value for Rattan is 1. You want to change the Display Scale to 12". When the preview is drawing in the Hatch Manager, you can press the [Delete] key to interrupt the redraw. Then change the display scale.

If you want to change the default values (on disk), you'll need to select Save or Save As after making the change. Otherwise, the setting will only affect the current drawing.
