"Units" setting on import DXF dialog missing/bugged out? (Stuck on sheet metal exercise)

evan_josa

I'm going through the Thicken exercise in the Simultaneous Sheet Metal course and hit a snag on slide 8 of the instructions, where it calls for a DXF file to be imported. The note says to "make sure the units are set to Inch on the insert dialog..."

...but when I go to insert the drawing, the Units setting is either missing or permanently shoved out of my reach beyond the bottom of the viewport:

This is a problem because importing the DXF as-is causes it to be undersized, and while it can be scaled freehand with the transform tool, I can't find a way to "snap" that scale to the one suggested by the rest of the existing geometry. I would either be scaling freehand or guessing-and-checking (itself a problem because the self-check is going to ask me about the surface area of the sheet affected by this sketch).

 Has the Units setting been removed or is this a bug on my end with the viewport? Either way, how do I get around this?

I can simulate the problem you have by "zooming in" on my browser. Perhaps you can fix the problem by zooming out? In chrome, 3 dot menu in upper right corner, zoom, hit "-" a couple times.

Units setting is as you guessed: pushed offscreen on the dialog.
