Importing DXF/DWG unit conversion error

Hi everyone!

 

When I import a DXF/DWG file as a reference CREO changes the working units for the model to inches.

 

The original part (before I saved as a DXF/DWG) was in metric. I then created a new part, set this up in metric in model properties, then imported the DXF/DWG file in to use as a reference and now everything is in inches. When I go into model properties, it is still showing as metric, but when I go to model the part it's in inches?

 

Model uses inchesModel uses inchesSet to MetricSet to Metric

 

Any help would be appreciated. 

 

Kind regards

 

Mick

I tried to reproduce the issue however it worked well. You can try the same with a new session without using any config settings.
