      Hi.
      Is there any grid or snap option? To be able to make a wall 10 mts. not 10.0528 mts. You know what I mean. 😉

        Yes, on a PC go to Window>Model Info>Units

        You can turn on or off angle or length snapping in there.

        I would be hesitant to set the length snap to 1 meter though. You'll have dificulties drawing smaller lines. I would recommend that you when you draw a line, watch the measurement box. It tells you how long the line is while you are drawing it. It tries to snap to whole number a tiny bit so its easy to get 10m and not 10.0004352 or whatever. Also, once you draw the line, if it is not the correct length, just type in "10m" and hit enter (don't type the quotation marks). The line will readjust itself to be whatever length you type manually. Hope that helps,

        Chris

        Lately you've been tan, suspicious for the winter.
