Dimension shown not consistent

Anonymous · ‎07-19-2017

Hi all,

I'm new user of AutoCAD in MAC OS. I have problem on dimension. Here I attach 2 files one.dwg and two.dwg, both i have deleted unrelated object and just focus on dimension.

We receive these files from our partner. For one.dwg, when I measure (using measuring tools) the distance dimension-ed 7250, it will show 36.25 which is 200 scaled smaller than 7250. That is the problem. For two.dwg, when I measured any dimension shown, it will give same value. So, no problem on two.dwg file. But both come from same sources. What is the different setting used in both files? How can i make the setting in file one.dwg be same as file two.dwg?

Note: If i used Window OS AutoCAD, both files will show the same value as in dimension. So, no problem on Window OS AutoCAD.

Hi Muhammad,

When I open attached "one.dwg" and measure distance dimensioned as 7250, I get exactly the same - 7250 distance.
So It is unclear what the problem is.

How exactly are you "measuring" the 7250 distance? There may be a clue there about what it is that is wrong.
