newbie simpleton!

Hi,

I've just started trying to fathom my way through Creo elements, and I would like to enlarge (scale up) a dwg file i have succesfully imported. The scale function is not suitable, as I need it to be in the region of 65 times larger than the drawing currently is, and this only allows up to 2x as its maximum enlargement (which i also couldn't quite get to work....). I need also to lock the aspect ratio. An alternative to this would be to redefine its size another way, perhaps through annotation. When i annotate the part using teh measure function, it gives it a value of length 1. I need it to be 65. I assume this is measuring in millimeters. I cannot seem to find a way of making this happen.....HELP please! (I've been trying to fathom it on and off for 3 days now!).

Seperately, How do I change the axis to x,y and z.....

thx.

Geometry added to a drawing via "Import 2D" is migrated into the Annotation drawing structure. After the migration, the geometry becomes a sketch.

It is not possible to change the scale of a sketch. You can resize a sketch (use sketch-->properties) by any percentage amount, but you are actually changing the physical size of the sketch, not the scale.
