Hi,



Can someone tell me how to change the units (ie from imperial to metric) in a drawing?



Thanks

Haha! Yes I just figured that out!



I'm sorry for littering your board with my nosense :)
 
No apology necessary! That is what this forum is for.

if u want to change the value alone u can overwrite the existing dimension in 2 ways
