hi,

Im running Viacad 3D V6 trial,
It is nice and easy to convert my AutoCad DWG files to STP,

But! ... It does all in Inches! How to set it to Metric?

I sent my question to Support but no reply up till now.
I found from FAQ similar question where answer is:
"Yes, the data entry window and dialog boxes support a smart expression parser. By adding suffixes to values, you can tell the parser to convert between units."

It does not help me much because my poor english and poor cad know-how,
(Im 100% autodidact, I can draw but do not know these terms),

Can anyone help me - dumb down - how to set it to metric?

Regards,

Herbert

Was very simple

Thanks,

I've been using ViaCAD Pro for about three months now. It's my 1st real CAD program so I don't have alot to compare it to, but for the price, it was a good deal, was pretty easy to learn, and their tech support is good, even for dumb questions.
