Hi,

I am wondering if anyone knows how to take a current layout drawing that is multiple pages drawn as imperial and convert it to display as metric without having to redraw all dimensions etc.

I have a client who I did a project for and the entire project was done in imperial - 13 pages. We have now been asked by another municipality that these plans will be submitted to - that they need to be in metric. Weird for this area as all housing drawings are all imperial however they have asked them to be in metric.

I have a ton of hours in this project and just really dread going back to redo everything in metric.
Is there an easy fix to this?

Sorry if this in the wrong area of the forum.

Thanks for the help.

Thanks for the help. I will take a look again and see.

Hi,

I was wondering if you guys could help me out here with a couple of answers? I just started using layout and can really see the potential. The problem is I saw this video of Nick Sonder Architect and saw the way he does his construction drawings which looked awesome. The problem I am having is I cannot seem to find the fog controls in layout that look like his (shown in photo attached) I am using windows base and he is mac but I cannot find it for the life of me. I have all of the controls he has except for Shadow Settings and Fog. What am I doing wrong here? Any help would be appreciated.

The second question is when I have a view port in layout. In sketchup I show no background colors etc just white. When the view port first opens in layout it is the same. The minute I move the model in the view port and click out of the view port it puts the green and blue background back in. I try to re-render it in settings but get the golden triangle. Can you tell me what I may be doing wrong here.

Thanks for the help.
