Scale bar showing as metric on imperial drawing

[Mik001]

Hi,

I am doing a small project in imperial units. All the project settings have been changed to imperial yet when I insert the default scale bar from the Object Tool I always get a metric scale bar. 

The view has been saved out with all the imperial settings yet I still get a metric scale. Really quite annoying. 

Anyone know what I'm doing wrong here? Sample screenshot included..

That is an object, you will most likely have to manually tell it that you are using imperial units. Also, given this question is about an object, you should probably provide the name of said object as well as the library localisation / libpack you are using.

ps. If that is the standard 28 Scale object, it does not seem to include anything for imperial conversion...

pss. You could possibly use my scale bar with a 2.54 Scale Unit

Have you ever used the default scale bar included in AC before? I have, and this is the first time it has come in as a metric scale and not an imperial scale on an imperial drawing. There is no such setting to 'manually tell it you are using imperial units'. It normally comes in automatically based on the units the drawing is set up for. Hence my question. 

For reference, see attached screenshot for the 'location'.

Nope, I have not used it as it's representation never did not suit my needs so I made my own. I looked at it after I posted, and it does not look to be dynamic, nor is there a setting to adjust it.

Have tried loading the Annotation USA libpack, if you are not already using it? Actually, that does not contain anything relevant...

In AC28? Wonder how it does that since the code does not seem to contain anything to do with scaling or detecting the dimension style...

I understand the frustration. Normally it works just fine and adjusts automatically based on the files' units that have been set up. Now, for some frustrating reason it just defaults to metric every single time. Very annoying.
