I did a quick test. I made a part in inches. I just used random numbers.

I created a drawing, showed the dimensions. I didn't try to make a good drawing,

I then went back to the model, changed the part from inches to mm.

Initially, when I returned to the drawing the views were "small" compared to the original.

I regened the drawing views and all came back as if nothing had changed.

See images.

Hi Stephen,

Thank you for the quick response on this

For small drawings, it is changing perfectly without any issues but if you have 3 sheets and a detailing file containing 100 annotations and in a sheet, some 4 ya 5 detailed views are there that time some views are distorted so this is how can I resolve.

Have you tried closing out of the drawing, clearing memory and then reopening the drawing?
