Insert default inches

Why do some blocks insert 25.4x out of scale?
Everything was fine a few months ago.
Ddunits set to "mm"

:)) UNITS sets your current file, now you need to set your inserts:
INSUNITS is a good place to start, also explore other system variables
that start with INS in Help.

Very good, the 3d design prog that I use is the culprit. Which explains why the prob is not consistant.
Can you also help me find the hidden garrot, shoe phone and derringer?

Is it a 'metric' 3d add-on?

12D civil engineering design standalone. The designer may have missed the variable. I'll have to experiment more and maybe contact their helpdesk.
As it's written in Australia which is metric, I would expect the defaults to be metric hence the assumption above.

At least I now know where the problem is originating from.
Thanks for your help.

I'm not familiar with it, but many symbols type add-ons have
two sets of blocks, perhaps the 'other' set is missing.

Hope you find a fix, please post back if it's an LT setting
so that we all can benefit.
