Hi @LordOfBikes,
You are right! The source is in inch while the destination is in mm.
After I changed the unit in Current Drawing Preference, the copied objects is in correct dimension.
I just want to make clear for other reader, and you asked for report.
So this is the "before" condition:
Current Drawing Preferences --> Main Drawing Units --> inch
Application Preferences --> tab Defaults --> Unit: mm
"After" :
Current Drawing Preferences --> Main Drawing Units --> mm
Application Preferences --> tab Defaults --> Unit: mm
Thank you for your help.
So this is not a bug.
There's another confusion actually,
in the source file, with the "before" condition
So when I measure using Info --> Distance point to point:
it shows correct dimension in mm.
Then I changed both units to inch.
Using Info --> distance point to point,
it shows correct dimension in mm.
I thought I should see the correct dimension in inch.
Thanks again!
