BlenderBim custom drawing scale help

Tried applying a custom drawing scale of 1:25 but i got an error. tried changing the scale in IFC Object Property set first but it only changes the drawing scale, not the annotations.

The way im doing it is by selecting the camera, going to the setting and choosing custom in the drawing scale options and i then tipe the scale 1:25 and press the generate drawing.

  • A scale is represented in two parts, a human readable portion (e.g. 1:100, or for imperial units 1-1/2"=1'-0") and a computer readable division 1/50 (for 1:50, or let's say 1/8 for some imperial thing). The two parts are separated by a pipe |.

    So try entering 1:25|1/25.

    The UI is really not user friendly, of course :) Any suggestions, mockups, would be incredibly appreciated so we can fix it for the next user.
