 How do I set my world units and object units in TS 7.5? I’d like them to all be in inches. I think I have stumbled across object units at some point, but I can’t seem to find it again. When I use the dimension tool on objects I import from 7.11 I get meters, and my new objects are in inches. The world seems to be in meters. I’d like to get them all to the same units.


Thanks

Workspace side has generic units. Treat them as whatever you want, my guess is that 1.0 = 1 meter. It would be nice to know what the different render engines expect 1.0 units to be though so that we can get accurate lighting...

How true, so why bother about inches :D

Sorry, I am of no help but couldn't resist
