Opening dwg file in RSA

chrismcc · ‎04-08-2016

Hello,
We created a dwg file with grid lines and imported the file in RSA. We had checked both the locations in the x and y directions were accurate to 3 decimal places in autocad first. When we snap to endpoints in RSA the grid locations have 9 decimal places.
Why does this happen? Can we avoid this problem? Also the grids were within 100 metres of the origin.
Regards

In tools/job preferences/units/dimensions ,you can set how many decimals you want.
Just select the grid lines and move them to the correct point

Hello Rafael,

Thnak you for the reply, but that is not the issue. The problem is that my autocad drawing has an x dimension say 1.234000000, i.e accurate to 3 decimal places, but when I import this to RSA and snap to the endpoint of the grid line, the dimension is 1.23456789 - RSA actually changes the dimensions.

Could you attach this dwg file please?
