Insert with the insertion scale set on metric


Recommended Posts

Posted

Some drawing I insert with the insertion scale set at Metric or the opposite of what the drawing was saved as. It makes it small and some it don't. Does anyone know why it doesn't. This might make Metric easier on AutoCAD. and on 2021 is there a way you can have 2 or more drawing open and different options. If I change one options it changes it on all of the drawings open.

You should check out the   " -dwgunits"    command, go slowly and read the commandline prompts carefully.

I suggest increasing the size of your commandline window display to about 10 lines.

Experiment on a copy of your drawing to be safe.

Very useful command, powerful and gives you a quick comprehensive overview of all of the different variables

which might come into play, without the need to address them each individually.

This command will only affect the drawing in which you are using it, not all of the others which you may have open, when you run it.
