insertion point problem...

Discussion in 'AutoCAD' started by colorado_rocky, May 11, 2006.

  1. I have a collection of drawings that I USED to (autocad Map 3d 2005)
    insert at 0,0 and they all tiled together (each drawing had its own
    insertion point that tiled it nicely). Now with Map 3d 2006 and 2007,
    when I try to insert one of these drawings, it comes in at a different
    scale and way out in no mans land..... are there some new settings in
    2006 or 2007 that I need to change to make these drawings tile once
    again ??

    thanks !

    You need to set the variable "INSUNITS" to a consistent value. This
    variable changes the units (meters, millimeters, etc.) of the drawings.
    When inserted into another drawing, AutoCad scales the drawing
    accordingly.

    You can also set this variable through the "DDUNITS" command.
