    Red face Section Elevation Scale

    Here I am using normally meters as drawing unit. For example a one meter long line is reported 1.00 (one unit) long. When producing sections or elevation and then putting them on a Sheet; the scale is mentioned (within the Field) as related to the millimeters on the paper representing a length of the real construction. For example a scale of 1:50 is motioned 1:0.05 which is of course correct, but a rather peculiar manner to present it.
    The 1:50 is well known and free from the actual millimeters on the paper: it says that the DWG is 1/50 of the real item.
    Is there any manner for me to have the Scale mentioned as 1:50 instead of 1:0.05?

    Thank you and Have a Brilliant New Year !!

    Default Re: Section Elevation Scale

    You can change this is the units dialog box.
    I believe you just need to switch from meters to millimeters. Or something like that. I know there was a post about this topic a few months ago. I'm not at a work station today, but I can check on it Monday.
