hi ,


when i m open a dwg on ug i will change atomiically in inchs what should i do


i need your yur best suggestion


thanks
 
What I do is to use 'Transform - Scale" and choose everything in the file. Then I scale it down by a value of "1/25.4".


That's the easiest way I know.
 
hi kay,
i have got your point but i can scale solid bodies on ug
but not the sketch please tell me how to scale sketch on
ug
thanks
 
Usually I'mimporting AutoCad curves to UG.


What I've done for sketches is to change the sketch values. Instead of 3.46in, I make the value 3.46mm.Or vice-versa depending on whether I'm going inch-to-metric or metric-to-inch.


If you turn off the automatic update, you can change all the values and nothing will move until you tell it to update.
