This article should help: How to change units in Fusion 360. STLs are unitless, so whatever unit you export them with, the file will use that raw value as the size. For example, if you export using inches and your part is 1 inchx1 inch, when imported into a slicer that uses mm (most do), your file will appear as 1mmx1mm.
Tell us about your attempts ? try to open a new dwg then change your Insertion Scale from UNITS command . then insert your drawing ( Inch ) to the new drawing ( mm ) . Since there are 25.4 millimeters in one inch then you can also use SCALE command with needed value . also you need to check your LTSCALE for hidden lines .
I have a drawing that was originally sent to us in MM for 1 unit. We needed it in Inches. So after some trying I got the measurements to come out in architectural format. Now a 16' wall comes out 406' 4 13/16".
On the Primary Units tab, enter inches in the Suffix box and set the Scale Factor to 25.4 (as there are 25.4 mm per inch) Click OK, and then click Close; In the drawing, select the dimensions that you want to be displayed in inches; Right-click and click Properties on the shortcut menu; Expand the Misc category
If you are finally sure that 1 AutoCAD unit in your drawing equals 1 cm (10 mm) than in order to convert the whole drawing to imperial units (1 AutoCAD unit = 1 inch) you need to scale everything in the drawing with scale factor 1/25.4=0,03937007874016. In order to accomplish this with more precision you have to call SCALE command, pick base ...
Command -DWGUNITS & follow the prompts on the command line. There are different options for whether or not you want to scale your geometry. You might need to adjust your dimension styles separately, command DIMSTYLE. Solved: I would like to change dimension from mm to inch. all drawing is in mm.
Hi All . I'm new to LT 2016; having used 2007 for some time. I'm trying to create viewports in paperspace and then scale them.
Ok so i modeled a part in SW2019 in inches but thought I was in MM. The dimensions reflect the mm sizes so when I change units, the dimensions change to the mm value and part is way too big. Is there a way to preserve the original dimension numbers in SW. I used to be able to do this in Inventor by specifying to keep dimension numbers intact.
For example if you want 1.4 inches - type in 1.4in. If you want 100 mm - type in 100mm. Now, because your current document units is mm, you should not have to enter the units. If you can demonstrate a way that a new dimension (or edited existing) dimension does not take on the current document units (mm) I would be interested in seeing a ...
My Steps: 1) Start a design with inch units as my preference setting. 2) Change the model units to mm. 3) Change the preference units to mm (not sure this makes a difference since it is for new designs) 4) Closed the model and opened. 5) RMB on the body and selected "Save as STL". Measuring still gave mm units.
