aisoos Posted October 16, 2013 Posted October 16, 2013 Hey Everyone, I'm having a problem, I created a block w/ attributes for my border and saved it for future use on other drawings. But when I insert it, even if the units are the same the blocks I inserted scaled smaller than the actual border that i wanted it to be. Anyone able to help me please Quote
lamensterms Posted October 16, 2013 Posted October 16, 2013 Hi aisoos, Check the INSUNITS variable and/or the unit settings in the UNITS dialogue box. What method are you using to insert your block? Quote
BIGAL Posted October 17, 2013 Posted October 17, 2013 Not sure for MEP but check AECDWGSETUP this has some options which I think are written to the registry not dwg. Took us a while to sort out for some old blocks they came in 0.3048 scale which is feet/metric. Ok now Quote

What method are you using to insert your block? Well the scaling changes when i do the insert block... so for the time being i was doing copy clip w/ base Quote
Dana W Posted October 21, 2013 Posted October 21, 2013 It will only take a few seconds to run the command -dwgunits,(the dash has to be there) then follow the prompts and make sure your insertion units match your drawing units. Quote
