Drawing scale display

[retrocrx]

Hi all,


I have a working drawing template that shows the sheet scale in my title block. My issue is that the scale is displayed as 1:12 when the standard for my industry is an achitectural scale ie. 1" = 1'-0".


Is there any way to make Solidworks display the scale in this manner automaticallywithout having to input the scale into the title blockmanually.


Ideally it would appear as an architectural scale in theSheet Properties when you create the drawing?


Any ideas?


TIA

I wonder if this is really an issue? I work with drawings from architects and despite being drawn in inches they always display the scale as a ratio, so 1:12 would still mean 1": 1'-0".

Would I be asking if it wasn't an issue??
