Hi, I’d really appreciate your help. I created a Layout file in a previous version of Layout for Mac in which annotating the drawing with the dimension tool worked fine. Now using the dimension tool appears to have a set scale of 1:50. despite the elements of the drawing being at either 1:100 or 1:200. Any ideas of what I’m doing wrong? Where to look for things which define scale?
Can’t upload the file for you to look at as its far to big 
(250MB) but attached a oic to show you what I mean…
You probably have manually set the scale for Dimensions in the Dimension Style window. Set it to Auto so it gets the scale from the model not from a manually set scale. You’ll have to anchor the dimensions to the model, though. You should be anchoring them to the model anyway.
This is from a LayOut project I am working on right now. Auto Scale is enabled so dimensions are taken from the model.
Dave R, You are a Layout hero! That’s just what was happening. So many odd things in these apps which if you don’t use them all the time , you soon lose control! Many Thanks
