Ifthe units of measure are changed, all subsequent measurements entered and. displayed are affected. Units of measure can be set in either Imperial or Metric units for values suc aslength, area, or angle. The units of measure can be changed at any time and the document sil retains complete accuracy of the objects alrealy placed on the drawing, Length Readout Sets the unit of measure and precision readout forthe length values in « document Angle Readout ‘Sets the unie of measure and precision readout forthe angle values in a dacumers, Area Readout Sets the unit of measure and precision readout forthe area values in a document. 37 a~ Precision Tae precision readout sets the numberof significant figures to display. I sets the accuracy ofthe unit readout value. The precision setting does no alte the numbers that {you type into the fields, only the display of the numbers inthe field. Values ending in S are rounded up. For example ifthe precision readout is 123 and you draw a line that is 2.1086 inches long, then the line value length is rounded. The length valve appears 9s 2.106 inches long. IF you are using mm as your drawing sheet units, you can have the values display in the Fields as 3.5 mm or 3.50 mm, Note: When you set the units of measure for a document, the settings do no affect the dimensional values for the document. You can se: units for the dimensional values with the Dimension Properties dialoz box.

Dimension and annotation sizes inthe sheets are independent of the view scale. For example, the height of dimension text will be printed at the specified size regardless of their screen appearance, Graphics elements on the attached background sheet are always displayed at a 1:1 scale, They are not affected by the scale factor for the working Sheet Setup command, Sevan | egw Have © cain en TT Dania Fens 6 sever) | Stet [TT F||tee | aI es cet co (ene fete) me Size and Scale Tab Defines the details for the drawing sheet size, scale, and print setup information, Sheet Size Sets the size of the drawing sheet ‘Same as Print setup, Sets the drawing sheet size using the current print setup definition.

For a 2:1 ratio, the 2 represents the size ofthe drawing and the 1 represents the size of the real-world object, Custom Defines a custom scale ratio, The first value defines the distance on the drawing sheet and the second value defines what the distance is equal to in the real world, Paper Units Sets the paper units for the drawing sheet.

Adding labels to the view style can be considered an intermediate operation. The advanced operations consist of additional orientation and clipping tests, custom graphic rales and dimensioning rules, Deconstructing the piping plan view style The instructor will lead you through opening a Piping Plan drawing created with the delivered Piping Plan view style and ideniitying what elements on the ‘drawing are created by which rows in the view style.
