I managed to import, I used the option menu and checked the "metric", but when the plan came up, it was "floating", couldn't set it straight, and when I measured to check if it fits, it was really a mess. I tried to re-size, using the tape measure and than typing the real size, but then it messed up the other parts of the plan..is there a way to change it without messing the entire plan?
tnx for the help.

Ok, I really like it. The thing is that it didn't came out in scale like the real plan.
How can I resize the walls? I uploaded the file, I also think that I didn't set up the axis as I need to.
Thanks for the help!
