jiggly_jelloo Posted April 15, 2013 Posted April 15, 2013 I just had solidworks 2013 installed on my computer and I am working through some of the tutorials to familiarize myself with the program a bit before I go for training. I have gone through the part and assembly creation and they were created in mm. When I go through the tutorial for the drawing I am fine placing the views, but when I do the dimensioning, it is being dimensioned in imperial. I selected the drawing template that was indicated in the tutorial. So I am not sure why this is happening. Is there a way to change my units in my drawing back to metric? Thanks, Colleen Quote
ReMark Posted April 16, 2013 Posted April 16, 2013 Courtesy of your Solidworks Help file: You can change the unit system without opening Document Properties - Units. In the status bar, click Unit System, then click a unit system. Quote
