Draw Options

I inherited a format and need to change the draw_units from mm to inch but it has a big red X under status and I can't change it. Is there a way around this without having to create a new format?

Thanks

But then your format will become very big. you may have to scale it down.


Edit>transform>rescale...


My proe is not open at the moment. Nevertheless give it a try.
 
this is just a guess. to create a format you insert text using table. it depends, a one time deal modify the text to make it in inches. otherwise create a new format that way you have a metric & a english format.


you may also want to create a metric .dtl & a english setup.dtl file


i hope this will answer you question
