Changing Dimensions

GWS50GWS50 Member Posts: 421 PRO
I have changed the dimensions through the 'hamburger' menu to meters from millimeters and they show as meters in the part studio.....but they still show as millimeters in the drawing.

What am I missing?

    Drawings has always had a separate units control apart from workspace settings and this is by design.

    We do not support meters, centimeters, feet decimal, and yards in drawings yet.  I just created a support ticket for you and tied you to that improvement.
