change scale design solidworks

[angelogianni08]

Hi.

Unfortunately cause an incomprehension I made a solidworks model in cm instead of mm (we leave the why)

because I have to pass from cm to mm. and consequently change the quotas in the tables

How can I do that? ?

just change the units of measurement in the program to have scaled everything?

help!

on insert > functions > scale do not enable me the button! How come?

even selecting a body, component or 1 sketch does not make me scale anything

-I also changed on tools - measures the unit from mm to cm but I do not change the size. . .

Do you have any suggestions?

after changing the measuring unit in mm you have to change all the sketches and functions by dividing for 10 all sizes.
if they are not many the operation is quite simple.
you should retract the function tree history and discover them once and for a time, in this way avoid effects on later functions, or suspend them all and then re-activate the functions in the tree starting from the first, after having modified it in the sketch and the function values switch to the second, and so on.

Thanks for the help!

Yes in fact I tried but as there are both surfaces and solids comes out a big mess

that is from 600 mm in reality were 60 handles!

- as it only affects a solid full of volumes I thought: I carry an iges and after the tip of 0.1 uniform = result I go crazy everything. .

- I have technical plates... I thought I imposed them with scale 1:10 so it comes in scale 1:1 on the sheet of exact size and then I change the odds by removing them some decimal!

mannaggia!! I've got to get it back! !

The scale command is what it does for you.
I don't know why you can't.
attach image or file we look at.

Now, maybe for a bug in the program, I got enabled the "scale" key

-the problem is that there are surfaces created by contour of lines and splines. and the scale command on the surfaces does not work. while in solid parts yes.

Imagine if I run the solid parts, I'm gonna get high. . .

- is there any way to export a solid as a unique entity? I mean, like the sat or iges but all a block? (I only have 2 parts in the axis) then the amount of the stopover. Maybe I'll do it first.

- that is to the customer only affects the volume at the moment.. Can you go as an idea? or export a mesh for autocad and port of call?

I'll have to stay on the computer until tomorrow morning, other than san valentino.... grrrrrrrrrrrrrrr


any suggestion or idea is welcome thanks!

Sorry, I'm not following you.
put the scale command at the end of the project.
what is first remains in cm, then at the end of all steps the solid 10 times.
attach the file courtesy that we look at what you did.

thanks soliduser but I can't attach the file.... for various reasons... also technical... .

But I have the tree made so...


-assieme x (which contains 2 components)

-component pyramid-> (contains 1 solid and various surfaces)
-component stem -> (contains a solid made in loft)


here applying the scale command on the axieme does not apply it to me, I have to get into change component type the pyramid, select the solid and me scale it, while the surfaces not (or only some)... result only makes me half the work.. .

-Is there any way to apply the scale on the whole project at the beginning of the tree?? Maybe!

- if I apply the "scale" it puts it on the function type extrusion only, and not on the whole level or component

cmq thanks to the support

the scale command works on a part level and not together.
The scale command puts it wherever you want.
any function is inserted at the moment and in the current position.
if you reconnect with the functions, you can insert any function.
you can always select the scale function and move it along the function history.
Are the surfaces used to drive the other component?
If not, then the scale command puts it at the end, if you, the scale command uses it on each body, solid surfaces to correct your situation.

Thank you very much soliduser

anyway as I have little time, I want to export an igs and then scale it all in block.

When the amount returns to me again the 2 parts and the aid.. .
and the scale me want to always apply it on the individual surfaces and I "get mad"

do you know if there is a way to export the axieme as unique igs file without components? I would also like a bad "mesh" to go - what format do you recommend me?

in this way the amount and then the port of call, I should do it!

Sorry the questions, but as you understand, I'm not really a solidworks splinter.

Bye-bye.

I solved so at the end:

1-I revived solidworks that had planned, for that did not go the scale

2-I exported an igs. after reopening it I applied the scale to the 2 components present. and went to port

3-The tables I overwrite the quotas by changing the scale of the drawing

Hello and thank you
