I using Archicad 23. my unit is centimeter but when I place the drawing in master layout the dialogue box appears with the setting of dimension in meter and I want dimensions to remain in centimeter.

I read through the manual but cant find the answer to my problem. Can anyone help?

In addition in working unit. I have set layout to the centimeter.

Baran,

the dimensions settings are saved with the view settings, you should be placing a saved view on the layouts and using saved / named dimension settings so that if you require different units for different drawing type they can be applied to those views, below are the settings from one of my project views. Regards,
Scott
