Currently when I start a new drawing, I have mm as my units, how I change the default to feet/inches?

 

Thanks!

On the command line type UNITS.  Look at the bottom left corner.  There is a checkbox that says "Set as default".

I got the Units changed to inches, and set as default, but how do you scale the drawing grid, right now the square units are 3000'!

 

Thanks

Make sure you are using the imperial profile first...  Imperial (inches and feet)

Then make sure the the imperial units template is set for the default QNEW filewhich can be found under the options file tab.

Select the template for either ctb or stb for the QNEW dwg
