Put Unit selection in the same dialog box as selecting files to import
Recently, We found importing a PTX and PTS with the default settings brought them in very close, but not at the exact coordinates. Turns out, for pts we needed to specifically change the units to US Survey Feet. While I was given instructions by the Autodesk Support Team, and was able to figure it out, I find the simple solution would be to move unit selection up front, where you select files to import. See attached images (If I could add 2 more attachments, it would be useful in explaining).
Michael, We understand that the Measuring Unit type selection is under Advanced options in the Text category. We recently found out that our PTS files would need to be set to US Survey Feet to come in at the correct coordinates. In attempting to change that setting, we found the process a little confusing and hidden. We are making the recommendation to help future users. This is merely an attempt to give Autodesk customer feedback. Please see attached images that further explain our findings.
