Hi @tomankubik ,

Please look at this article:

Linetypes do not display correctly in referenced drawings (Xref) in AutoCAD

Your drawings have different MEASUREMENT settings.

Hi Toman,

You need to set System Variable XREFOVERRIDE=0 (default value).

This variable is stored in the drawing and controls the display of object properties on referenced layers.
