nestly Posted March 16, 2012 Posted March 16, 2012 IN this drawing, I want the 9.00 to be either 4 ( feet) or 48 (inches). How do I set the correct scale in this or any drawing? In AutoCAD, we always want to draw at "full size", so if you want the dimension to read 4 feet (48 inches) you actually make the part 48 inches. Assuming you want everything to remain in the same proportions, I would use the SCALE command, with the Reference option. Quote
