Converting drawing from mm to m

Anonymous — Sun, 20 Dec 2020 05:01:20 GMT

When I converted a drawing from mm to m using the scale command, the dimensions do not convert. See the image below. How can I also convert the dimensions to m .

Hi @Anonymous,

Once your model is scaled, go to a Dimension Style Manager (DIM command), select the style you want to adjust and modify the scale in FIT.

If you change the value from 1 to 10, it will get 10 times larger (general scaling) or vice versa, which saves you from having to edit the value of each part individually.

Regards,

Nothing automatically fixes your DIMSTYLE settings: you need to "fix" them yourself manually using DIMSTYLE command.
