    Changing Dimensions

    I'm trying to view my measurements in inches only instead of feet and inches. Is there a way to change this setting so when I use any of the dimensioning tools it will show how long an object is in inches. I've looked through the help menu and through the default settings but I couldn't find what I was looking for. If anyone can help me with this, I greatly appreciate it.

    If you select the current dimensions you have you can change them to inches. You can also set up so all new dimensions you place are in inches by a setting in dimension defaults. If you want your dimensions to always be in inches set this up in your profile plan.
