Hi, I'm currently a little bit stuck with a problem getting correct (correctly sized) measurements into the drawing. Here is what I try to do: 1. Create a new drawing (Ctrl + N) 2. Perform the page layout (SinglePage, Landscape, ScaleMode: Metric, Scale: 1:20, Show Printing area) This leads to the fact, that I get a drawing area wich fits to the A4 page with a scale of 1:20. So far so good. Now when I draw a line of, let's say 2.5 meter and I apply a measurement line, this line is way too small and the text is unreadable. So, how can I setup the page to have a 1:20 scale, see the hole drawing area (print area A4) and still get well sized measurement lines and numbers? Thanks in advance. Best regards, Tobias

hi, you can change the size of the dimensions in your drawing. select the dimension tool (no objects selected) -> go to inspector tab "dimension" and set proper size as a default setting for the drawing
