Hello,

I want to make a hole with a thread in.
I want to have an M20 so i change it into ISO
But when it's M20 the diameter of the hole changes to a small one.
The diameter is 0,7 then
I heard my creo stands in the unit : inch
How can i change this to mm?

Thanks in advance

in config.pro

change "pro_unit_length" to unit_mm especially if all work is done in millimeters.
 
Hello
You can, for example, change it only for the file you're working with, you can change it in File--> Prepare --> Model properties, and then Units --> Change. You choose mmKs and click on Set.
You also can set it permanently in config.pro
The third possibility is that you make a new Template in mmKs (an empty model) and when you need to make a model in mm you choose this one.

Hope it helps!

Regards
Mikael
