Hi Dnyaneshwar,

Hi,

Sorry, I was not aware of Inventor Nesting Tool so I though you need Inventor Unit setting hence I posted.

Also Thank you because now I know there is also a Inventor Nesting Tool available with AutoDesk.

Please refer below link which I found when I was searching about the tool..if it works for you.

Hello @mjplaatwerk ,

What are you trying to change the units of? If you're just wanting to change the units of the iNest document itself, then what you want is in the same place it is for all other document types: the Document Settings command on the Tools ribbon. If you're wanting to change units on a particular source (say a DXF file that is unitless), the Sources command has a table with the units in one of the columns. If you cannot see that column, right-click on the column headers and choose Display Columns and make sure the Units and Unit Source columns are visible. If you want to override the units, you can force it by changing the Unit Source to custom, which will let you edit the unit.

I hope this helps.
