I use plan sets and every time I drop a new drawing onto the page it comes in with a label. I put all my "titles @ scale" on my drawings so every time I add a drawing to the page I then have to edit it and uncheck the label. Is there somewhere in settings I can turn this default off? I can't seem to find it.

Go to FILE > SYSTEM OPTIONS and Under PROJECT DEFAULTS > CROSS SECTION GENERATION and ELEVATION GENERATION, uncheck the AUTO LABEL BUTTONS

 

Under SYSTEM OPTIONS > CHARACTER SETUP - Plan Set Page SIzes, Uncheck AUTO LABEL

 

That's all I can remember ... I don't have anything AUTO LABELLING, but it's been a while since I turned it all off.

Softplan 2022.

In system options, character set up, there is no Auto Label button.

 

How do I turn off the auto label for plan set drawings.  Having to edit each drawing and turning it off is getting annoying.

Also, how do I set an auto scale?  all my drawings show up as 1/8" but I would prefer to have them as 3/16" because it is easier to read on 11x17.  1/4" is too small.

In 2022, the  AUTO LABEL PLAN SET DRAWINGS is under SYSTEM OPTIONS > PROJECT DEFAULTS > PLAN SET LABELS unchecking the box should fix it.

 

There is no AUTO SCALE ... drawings should default to 1/4" scale if there is room on the sheet.
