    All Line Lengths Doubled in Length

    I just opened a sketch I used a few weeks ago to fit furnishings into the living room. Today when I check a line length with the horizontal dimension tool I find that the length is twice what I intended and I think I used last time.

     

    Is there some simple tool I may have invoked that kept my scale at 1:100 but somehow doubled all of the dimensions?

     

    If so, I gather it should be possible to reverse the process and halve them again.

     

    Thanks in advance,

    I think I may have found my answer. Am I correct? I believe the command is Edit>Transform>Scale. It seems to change the scale of the selected objects without changing the scale set under Tools>Drawing Options>Scale.

     

    I must have inadvertently invoked the former command at some point.

     

    Thanks again,

    Yes, that's exactly what that tool does.
