plot scale only shows inches even though i set to mm

Working on Autocad mechanical 2012 in the plotter section there is  set plot scale option mm or inches. I set this to mm then go to the arrow drop down , this then only shows 1:1 then the rest of the pull down only shows inches options not metric. Does anybody know why this is, thanks Dave.

Hi Dave,

 

Have you checked the scale list in Edit Drawing Scales dialog by command SCALELISTEDIT? If it's only showing inch scale, please click Reset and then choose the scales you want to reset in the coming task dialog.

 

Hope it helps.

Thanks.
