Are you designing in metric or English units?  Is it a custom symbol that you created?  It would help if you post the affected drawing, with the symbol inserted.  We need to have a look at your drawing properties and panel configuration, which are hidden in the drawing.

Hi @ranjithkumarM7U35 

 

Seems like a issue with the custom terminal footprint drawings. You will see results like this units gets mixed up i.e. inches vs mm.

 

Ideally you should fix it at the symbol level but for a quick check, you can try setting up the Scale on Insert: in the TSE to convert metric symbols to imperial and vice-versa.

 

1 inch = 25.4 mm

1 mm = 0.039 in
