0 Vectorworks, Inc Employee Nina Ivanova Posted June 17, 2021 Vectorworks, Inc Employee Share Posted June 17, 2021 Hello @Stu Wilson, The attached DWG file is "Unitless". You should know what units have been used to draw the graphics there and then choose them in the import options dialog. I suppose, that units for this DWG are Meters. 1 Quote Link to comment
0 Vectorworks, Inc Employee Tamsin Slatter Posted June 17, 2021 Vectorworks, Inc Employee Share Posted June 17, 2021 Agreed with @Nina Ivanova The author of the DWG should be able to tell you the unit of measure that they used when drawing the AutoCAD file. That is the unit you need to specify on import. Quote Link to comment
