I realize there's plenty of tutorials, but I believe I may have hit a little...snag.

Upon importing my blueprints, which according to several sources are built and tailored correctly, as Viewport backgrounds, I can zoom in and out but the blueprints will become skewed, trying to fit like other blueprints. Also, when trying the "Box" trick (i.e. creating a Box primative and seeing if it matches all 3 viewports with size, height and depth) the Box won't....look correct.

Here's an example...

I'll set this as the "TOP" viewport.

Then I'll bring in this one as the "FRONT" viewport.

And when i scroll with my mouse wheel to zoom in and out, the TOP viewport background will try to "scale" itself to match the FRONT viewport.

Any help on this would be SUPER.

My Aspect Ratio settings in my Viewport Background area are "By Bitmap" and set to Lock Zoom/Pan and Display Background.

That's because of the lock zoom/scale option. it probably automatically scales them to the correct size so there will be no mistakes. Don't quote me on that though.
