I'm trying to see why my Civil engineers dimensions don't match my Revit.
I have his DWG, but I cant remember how to work with dimensions in my Autocad LT 2007.
When I click on Units, I set it to Architectural.
When I go To Dimension styles, I have tried everything!
My Dimension should be around 65 feet but it keeps showing as 3 1/2".
I'm am not good at typing into the command bar.
Can someone help me using the drop downs with units and dimension styles?
Thanks!
Here are the steps.
1. Change units to decimal feet using the units command. This was determined by the civil and is good practice for site plans in general.
2. Make the units of your dimension style match the way you want to read your dimensions. You can do either Architectural or Decimal feet.
example 1 : Architectural dimensions 10'-6"
example 2: decimal feet dimensions 10.5'
I was able to get the decimal feet to dimension. Could 'nd make the Architectural to do anything more than give me 5"-5" again.
But that's OK I can work with this.
Thank you all for all your help!
