Bye to all,

I have done a couple of researches without finding anything (both in the forum and in the help and guide) but if I am mistaken, please report it to me.

I am working (with solidworks 2019 sp5) on a colleague's files, which unfortunately uses the following settings:1629815559027.pngNow, every time I go to quota it gives me the lengths in inches, so for each table I change the unit of the double quota manually.

any of you please know a way to have the odds in a thousand meters without changing settings for each design?
It seems strange that there is no general approach with a greater priority than the settings of the document. or can you choose not to use the double quota?

p.s. thanks jenuary for the double rescue!

the double quota means that in case you have the need to insert also the conversion of quota will be used that format.
the main unit format is the one set in the first field (in your millimeter case)

what you have attached is the property tab of the environment part, if your problem is in the design environment you have to refer to the relative tab.

Remember that the modification of the properties is only valid for the open file
 
Thanks for the answer.
Yes, the correction I make in the drawing.
How come then to quote only uses the dual unit and not the main one?
the point is propio this, the setting is only valid for the open file. I thought there was a way not to change that setting in each file.

1629822636861.webpI realize now that the thumbs don't really hit anything, misuse the meters... I'll do a new search.
Thank you very much for the tip, I try and tomorrow I will show how it went.
 
It seems strange to me that primary unit cells are blocked, they should be set.
So you're quotating in meters instead of in millimeters... control the setting of quota types

I correct, the primary units are blocked because the mmgs unit system is set, while I always use the custom so I have all the accessible settings.
in the types of quota are not set the units

Are you sure the part is the correct size?

if you attach files you could solve without going to attempts
 
Unfortunately, I can't attach files.
Yes, the dimensions are right, they seem unusual because of a flat repetition.
I tried to fix the sheet format (even if it should not affect) and create templates and now all quotas are all in millimeters automatically. so many clicks saved, thank you!

in these cases you don't need the official file, but one that presents the problem... even a cube can go well.

in fact the sheet format has no influence.
sin not be able to understand where the problem was
 
I'm supposed to get some parts out of a colleague who's on vacation right now, I don't think I'm having any trouble.

However, yes, using a template I can't see what the setting is and what problems.

in the next few days I will see if I can get me shareable material.
