Changing the scale of a complex dxf document opened in Fusion

Hi

I have a dxf document that when opened in Fusion consists of hundreds of drawings. The document shows a building plan. An element that is 1000 mm in reality is 2254 mm in the drawings. If I were to change the scale of one drawing, it would be easy.

How can I change the scale of a document that consists of hundreds of drawings?

 

Regards 

Tomasz

Hello @TomaszAdamF 

 

Just to re-iterate the problem and check if I'm getting it right, 

 

The dxf file contains many sketch elements such as lines, arcs etc. The query is about scaling all the elements in the sketch at once. 

 

I am getting it correct, I believe preference option of "Scale entire sketch at first dimension" in preferences->Design will be helpful.

 

With this option turned ON, you can insert the DXF and add dimension to any of the line or entity you know can be used, and entire sketch will get scaled after adding the dimension to the right ratio based on original dimension vs newly added dimension.

 

I hope this was helpful.

 

Thank you
