C++
Acad::ErrorStatus getStdScale( double& scale ) const;
Description
Returns the standard scale value as a floating point scale. Each enumerated value in the enum StdScaleType maps to a single floating point number. This method allows an application to retrieve a standard scale without having to do a table lookup to compute the scale value.
The stdScaleType property stores the "standard" print scale selection, including scale-to-fit, for the plot settings object. It is not a number like customPrintScale, but is an enum indicating the desired print scale. AutoCAD uses this, along with other information like the plot area, to compute the customPrintScale when useStandardScale is true. While the stdScaleType property always has a value, it may or may not be reflected in the customPrintScale, depending on the value of the useStandardScale property.
