Hello
In Archicad, the measurement unit of the dimension lines is centimeter, but in my master sheet these measurement units are converted to meters. How can I show them as centimeters?
Operating system used: Windows 11 24H2
Solved! Go to Solution.

You need to create a new dimensioning type. Go to Options - Project preferences Dimensions
There you can set everything up as you want them to have, and then, you can Store them with your own naming.
ex:
This can be accessed by the menu you showed in your screenshot.

Hi!
You can try going to Options - Project preferences - working units:
edit: I now understood your question: Check the placed view from the view map (right click on it and go to settings) and view check the dimensioning settings
