Hi,
Is it possible to have metric and non metric dimensions in the same part?. I have a part which has both metric dimensions and non metric dimensions in it.
You can only have one system of units in your model although you can make drawings that show dual dimensions in two unit systems. It is all or nothing however. Either all the dimensions are single unit or they are all dual units. If you want to get really messy, you can define parameters and use relations to convert them to different units from your part. Then you can show the parameters in your drawing. You have to ask yourself if that is really a good idea, how many mistakes is it going to cause.
