Hi All,

 

Does anyone know how to show both metric and imperial on a set of plans?  For example other programs allow you to dimension in imperial while also showing in brackets the metric conversion.  I really don't want to manually add notes under or beside every dimension.

 

Thanks!

As far as I'm aware, that's the only way you'll be able to do it. As far as Softplan is concerned it's either METRIC or IMPERIAL not both.

 

And my pet gripe ... Softplan, why are metric dimensions accurate to 0.1mm can't they round to the nearest mm ALWAYS. I've NEVER used a metric dimension less than a mm for ANYTHING.
