    <description>&lt;P&gt;Annotation scale of current view is 1:1; required scale is metric, with a scale factor of 25.4 for 1:1.&lt;BR /&gt;Current drawing units is decimal.&lt;/P&gt;&lt;P&gt;&amp;nbsp;&lt;/P&gt;&lt;P&gt;I begin by creating the top of a bolt head, which is a line 1.06 units in length. The scale looks very small, so I increase the 1:1 scale by 25.4. That looks better, but when I use DIMLINEAR to check the length I get 27 units instead of 1.06. I know that 1.06 X 25.4 is 26.92. Not only am I getting the wrong units, but the dimension is also displaying the units to the nearest whole number. What am I doing wrong?&lt;/P&gt;</description>

      <description>&lt;P&gt;Hi,&lt;/P&gt;
&lt;P&gt;&amp;gt;&amp;gt;&amp;nbsp;&lt;FONT color="#808080"&gt;&lt;EM&gt;The scale looks very small&lt;/EM&gt;&lt;/FONT&gt;&lt;/P&gt;
&lt;P&gt;&lt;FONT color="#000000"&gt;Depending on what ? you can by Zoom command get it bigger without scaling your elements . I mean that when you put the total line value you will get the right total dimension .. so , don't increase&amp;nbsp;your elements size .&amp;nbsp;&lt;/FONT&gt;&lt;/P&gt;</description>

      <description>&lt;P&gt;&lt;STRONG&gt;"Depending on what ?"&lt;/STRONG&gt;&lt;/P&gt;&lt;P&gt;&amp;nbsp;&lt;/P&gt;&lt;P&gt;Depending on the size of the border and title block. After posting to this forum, my professor responded with "Glad you asked, the Bolt needs to be created full size with a scale 1=1, start a NEW drawing use default units, decimal and draw Bolt full size, when you insert attributed title block insert it with the scale factor of 1, not 25.4." Thanks for replying, Imad!&lt;/P&gt;</description>

      <description>&lt;P&gt;Thanks for replying, Dave! I guess I started a new drawing inside of an existing drawing, and didn't bear in mind the scale of the existing drawing.&lt;/P&gt;</description>

      <description>&lt;P&gt;Annotation scale of current view is 1:1; required scale is metric, with a scale factor of 25.4 for 1:1.&lt;BR /&gt;Current drawing units is decimal.&lt;/P&gt;&lt;P&gt;&amp;nbsp;&lt;/P&gt;&lt;P&gt;I begin by creating the top of a bolt head, which is a line 1.06 units in length. The scale looks very small, so I increase the 1:1 scale by 25.4. That looks better, but when I use DIMLINEAR to check the length I get 27 units instead of 1.06. I know that 1.06 X 25.4 is 26.92. Not only am I getting the wrong units, but the dimension is also displaying the units to the nearest whole number. What am I doing wrong?&lt;/P&gt;&lt;P&gt;&amp;nbsp;&lt;/P&gt;&lt;P&gt;Let's start with the question "what is the unit of measure?" with a scale factor of 25.4 it seems that you are working in inches and trying to convert to a metric scale. The top of the head is 1.06 units in length, what is the unit, inch or millimeter? If it is inches then the conversion to millimeters is correct, although the accuracy may want to include a decimal since you are working at 1:1 scale. If you go to units you can increase the accuracy there.&lt;/P&gt;</description>
