Set things like you want them and then save as a dwt (template file). Then you can open it and have it all set for you.

Think about some of the other things you can add to this master template such as layers, text and dimension styles, system variables that you want preset too. Do you have a title block and border drawn up? Well throw that in there too (in your layout where it belongs).

I haven't used limts or grid since '87 of the last century - but as indicated you can set all of this stuff including standard borders, title blocks, layer settings, dimension styles, printer settings ....and more, in your template file and then forget it. Set it once and forget it. That work is done.

Could also be saved as a profile too.

...then open Options>Files, find Template Settings, Default Template File Name for QNEW, navigate to your template file and pick it. Now when you start a new file it will automatically use the template you setup.

Dog-pile... _OR_ added to AcadDoc.lsp:

 

(vl-load-com)

(foreach item '((gridmode 0) (limcheck 0) (lunits 2))
 (vl-catch-all-apply 'setvar item))

Just make sure that you create your template on a template which is in your preferred units of measure, meaning either Metric or Imperial.
