Good afternoon, I started my drawing, in mm 1 to 1 so far so good, and I may leave it in MS since there are no a lot of stuff in there is mostly equipment, but I am having trouble setting the dimstyle and text height, same with the ltscale, I have centerlines and phantom lines, what ltscale should they be at? If I need to plot for checking what's my scale to plot as well, I know I am asking a lot but is my first time doing this type of drawings and drawing in metric.
Thank you for your help. Don't forget hard plot limits are inside sheet size. Good morning I just tried to insert an A0 Title block but it is too small for my drawing, I guess because I have a 1 to 1 , ow do I make it that it will fit into an A0 , here is what I have done so far LayOut. I also took the liberty of scaling your text, dimensions and linetype so they show up in the layout.
Oh I just did that to make it easy ND Mke sure I was not forgetting anything, my original drawing is not a block, Thank you so much for your help! You are a life saver! Hello Steven, sorry to bother you, But I tried to recreate and placing my Title block in PS but when I go to pick I don't have that, I only have and I try typing it without avail, why can"t I do it, I tried to do it into another drawing, and also if you don't mind giving me the guidelines as to how you set up the right text and the viewport, this is all so new to me.
As i noted above I had to add it to your drawing. Steven has done a good job the layout dwg is a A1 sheet you could go larger as A0 is x but as dwg fits nicely makes sense keep A1.

Maria Camara Posted March 6, As an aussie with our twang not that bad really - thats only for the movies I have noted that americans actually pronounce their words as they are spelt. Having being involved in some home schooling and having to teach spelling and pronunciation I have been very frustrated as we break more rules than we keep.
But on listening to the US accent which of course varies I noted that they actually say a lot of words as they are spelt. It must be easier to learn to spell as a kid in the US! Message 7 of How do i convert a architectural drawing template and all its dim styles to centimeters? I want to use an existing template and convert everything to centimeters. Message 8 of Message was edited by: steve Message 9 of I don't know if there's a need to convert anything. Since you're drawing in centimeters, you're just saying that 1 unit drawn in AutoCAD is now read by everyone as 1 centimeter instead of 1 millimeter or 1 meter.
Message 10 of I guess what I really mean is how do I get my current dimstyle to have the correct tick marks, arrow head sizes, etc. Also, my limits are ', 96'. Do I need to multiply these numbers by anything 2. I'm sorry, this is very confusing for me and I typically don't create any new templates or dim styles since they are already created, let alone create a metric one!
Message 11 of You should go back to whoever helped you create your Imperial foot-inch set of templates and dimstyles to customize them as Metric centimeter. Since I don't use Limits, I can't imagine why you'll need to set this.. Message 12 of Hello John what is the contents of your plans? Survey, road construction? Plants, steel industry? What will be the scale you have to print?
Also, come up with a naming convention that not only sets them apart from your imperial styles, but also tells you what they are e. From the Modify or Override dialog box, click on the Alternate Units tab, and check the box in the upper left to turn the feature on. You design a project in one measurement system. Near the end, you get the word that oops it was supposed to be in the other. Either way, you must change from one to the other. It all starts with this number: Commit it to memory.
There are So, simply put, if you have a metric drawing and you need to make it imperial feet and inches , you will have to scale it up Conversely, if you want to change an imperial drawing to metric, it must scale down Sounds pretty straightforward, right? This is why I suggested that you make your Styles annotative. It may not be perfect right away, but it sure beats re-dimensioning and annotating from scratch.
After all, it was developed in the U.
