Cadwork22 Posted July 12 Share Posted July 12 I imported a dxf file and need it to be at a 1:1 scale, see attached, the dimensions don't match. Can it be modified to scale this? Thanks as always Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Solution Chopsaw Posted July 12 Solution Share Posted July 12 Yes of course, check one of the longer measurements that are dimensioned and calculate the ratio then select everything and use transform and replicate to make the adjustment. Or you may have not used the correct import settings. This can also be checked by measuring and calculating the existing ratio. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Renerabbitt Posted July 12 Share Posted July 12 and also....more often than not I find errors in plans that are auto cad based files that are generated by the drafter themselves. They may have made a mistake and actually have a 25' section there Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
