(OP)
I've inherited a model from another designer. When I do a "fit" everything scrunches up on the left side, very small - so there's a huge expanse of open space in the graphics window. I've unblanked everything and am sure there are no other entities that are causing this. Is there a setting that will cause it to truly "fit"?

The other designer is no help.

Thanks!

Hi Randy ,

1.Try blanking only the part you need and open the blanked part and see whether it fits.
2.Is the model opening correctly in other designers machine.
3.Is it a UG prt file or you are importing some other format.

Thanx,
Karthikeyan.J
