Summary


Details

User opened a model with the SolidWorks import function in ST9 and noticed that when opening the draft the template and dimensions are in the lower right corner and scaled. Why?



Solution

The problem with the Migration is due to the wrong template file being selected. The SolidWorks file is in Inch format whilst the user selected a metric template file. 


You will need to select an Inch template in the Migration options - then the scaling will be correct.
