According to the way the civil field was originaly instructed during the. aborted transition to metric, the correct method is you only use millimeters. for small objects; ie details & such. Depending on your client, your mileage. may vary though ;')>. Warren. wrote in message news:5822997@discussion.autodesk.com...
Please do this to a new drawing and let see what you'll get. -DWGUNITS and make sure it's meter, draw a line 1 unit. -DWGUNITS again. change to mm and go thru all the options and choose to have objects in the drawing scaled up, Check to see if that single line is now 1,000 units. Report.
Hello All, I have a question and I hope you can help me. I'm making a drawing for a land surveyor in meters on coördinates. This way he can put it into his equipment and use it on location. I have made this drawing in meters, but it has to be millimeters. How can I change my drawing units from ...
As a land surveyor I draw my topographical surveys in Civil3d in meter units. So a house 15meters wide is drawn 15.0 in model space. However many of the Architects would prefer to have the drawing delivered at mm scale. So the house example would show a distance of 15000 when measured in model space. My problem has not being able to scale my ...
Hello. I wanted to ask for help with the dimensions. I wanted to ask for help how to change mm to meters completely, I already change the project units to meters but whenever I placed dimensions on the walls etc. .. The numbers are always in millimeters which is my problem because I want it in meters like for example 1.20 Meters not 1200 .
One of the ways - if you don't need to scale the objects inside the drawing during conversion from Imperial units (foot/inches) to Metric units (meters/millimeters): 1/ create new drawing using acadiso.dwt template. 2/ copy everything from the drawing you want to convert. 3/ paste to the new drawing, created in step #1.
05-13-2020 03:29 AM. It is the same scale. 0.1 meter is the same as 100 mm. But when I attach the xref, autocad changes the original 1 = 0.1 meters to 1 = 0.1 MILLIMETERS. It just changes the unit without proper conversion, which is WRONG. That's why I can't just use the "1:100_XREF" scale from the list.
You need to create a new Level Head family tag that has the units set to Meters, save it with a new name then load it into the project. To change the Level Head family units select the Elevation label in the family editor and then select the Edit Label button on the Option bar. In the Edit Label dialog window select the Elevation under Category ...
If a line is 1 drawing-units long then your setting with command _UNITS is the decision if you say this line is 1 Millimeter or 1 Meter, the line stays at 1 drawing-unit long. So you need also to run command _SCALE and scale the drawing by 1000 or by 0.001 to modify from Meter to Millimeter to vice versa. An alternative command could be command ...
When set up for metric/ISO "100 units" is 100 millimeters. I'm working mainly in meters/centimemters. So should I draw in millimeters (which will get a little nuts trying to remember to multiply everything by 1000) or draw in meters (and have everything be 1/1000 as big and then, I guess, scale up). What's the standard practice? Thanks. Toney
