Dimension Defaults 1/16

Anonymous
Not applicable
When I open a project my dimensions are set to 1/64 per "US Architect 1/64", but I then change it to 1/16, but it never retains this and I ALWAYS have to come in and change every time I reopen the project. How can I have it ALWAYS default to the 1/16??

@Barry it does do that, but only for my current session. Once I close out, it goes back to 1/64.

So when you make your change and you "Store As', you are getting this warning?


Then you press 'Overwrite' and then press 'OK' to leave the Project Preferences (make sure you do not press 'Cancel' or just close the dialogue).

When I do this the changes stick.

I think I got it now. I created a set of defaults but never "set" it to that setting.
