Yeah if it worked like that that would be great. Unfortunately unlike using Autocad or Vectorworks when you draw something as 10 or 100 meters (ie 10000mm or 100000mm) Sketchup Layout does not always pick this up and gives you 9998mm or 10008mm instead of 10000mm when you dimension. This is with something set with a manual dimension when drawn in Sketchup. It's generally bad drafting practice to give dimensions to a mm over a large area unless its for a genuine reason or you work as an engineer... in which case I suspect you'd be using Inventor.....

Unfortunately we draft in mm so that would change units to cm which is not the standardised dimension unit for construction.

Is there any way to get Layout to round up to the nearest 10 or 100 - like in Autocad? Not just the nearest 1?

As Australia and UK work in metric millimeters this means mm is our dimension tool. We often round large items to 10mm (ie about to the nearest 1/4 inch) or even 100mm.

Set builders hate it when you hand them a dimension like 1498mm instead of 1500mm.

Dimensioning up in Layout sometimes reads things out by a few mm - 1200mm becomes 1203mm etc. Or if I've scaled 3D text for example its hard to get it to the nearest 100.

Is there any way to get Layout to round up to the nearest 10 rather than 1?
When working on huge jobs manually changing these dimensions is a nightmare - and bad protocol for updates later.

thanks in advance
