When I use the distance command the answer displays in inches; I prefer feet of course. How do I navigate to the menu that changes this?
Having the same issue in 2021 Autocad. Units, set to decimal. When I used the distance command, default measurement is inches, I need feet. The 'aecdwgsetup' command from the previous comment (2012) does nothing for me.
I am the architect, it's my drawing. But I am filling out a form, and showing some calculations where I want to write the building dimensions and square footage in Feet in decimal format. I can figure it out on my own, but I was wondering if it was possible to change the output to feet instead of inches while using the 'distance' command.
Alex,
If you're using Civil 3D, in Drawing Settings change the Distance Units.

Ohh, I was googling for answers and this thread came up. I'm using AutoCAD 2021. Sorry all, but thanks for trying to help.
