NX drafting creating dimensions in cm

NX drafting creating dimensions in cm

(OP)
Hello,

Is it possible in NX 9 to change units in drafting to be displayed in cm instead of mm? Right now when I create new rapid dimension it is by default displayed in mm I want to change it be displayed in cm. In sheet settings only inches and millimeters are available. I'm wondering if changing of units display is possible.

RE: NX drafting creating dimensions in cm

I guess that link isn't quite what you needed, sorry about that.
In NX7.5 to change the units of the dimension RMC on it go to STYLE-> UNITS (last tab) -> go to the units and find cm in the pull-down . . . I hope NX9 is similar
For future dimensions you should be able to set what you want in PREFERENCES
I am not on my computer so I am doing this somewhat blind, so I hope I gave you the correct direction
