Hi! I have to machine a part that is dimensioned in mm. I was wondering whether is possible to create the geometry in mm and then translate everything in inches. Doing the conversion for each feature before drawing a line will be more than a pain in the neck, not to mention chances to make mistakes. All what I want is to be able to work like I do in SW, where I draw the part in mm and then by clicking a button I get everything transformed in imperial. Thanks |

| In "X" Alt-F8 then at the bottom of the window you will see it set for Metric do the drop down and set for English and it will Prompt you to scale for you. Then Click Yes.
