Units: mm & inch in the same model

[AeroNucDef]

Hi all

The company that I work for uses metric and imperial units in the same drawings. For instance, they use mm (metric) for flanges, and inches (imp) for pipes. And they like to see this on their drawings.

Is there a way to quickly switch between the two units? I'm having to go into doc properties every single time.

thanks

There are several macros around to do that.

iwonafish,

Could you just set your drawings to dual units?
