sketcher scale

[bmozley]

Pro E users,

Is there a way to change the sketcher scale? Upon the first sketch, if I
draw a circle, the value of the diameter
is large. My parts are less than 1 inch in diameter (most cases). I
usually create a circle, and by default the value is a couple of
hundred, then I adjust the value to 1 and delete and then begin my
sketch. Any ideas would be much appreciated.

Brad, To the best of my knowledge, there is not a "sketcher scale" configuration setting. The twomethods I haveused (besides manually changing every dimension in the sketch) are documented here: - Modify/Lock Scale:

Brad,

Sketched entities can be proportionally scaled down or scaled up and rotated or translated as below,

>>Select all entities (sketch) that needs to be scaled
>> select scale option from sketcher option (side to mirror option)
>>change the scale value by decimal numbers

Hi Brad,

This was annoying for me also.

If you zoom in approx 3 times, your scale will be around the 1 inch mark.

OR in your start part make an extrude feature on each default datum plane that are around 1 inch in size.

I have three features in text FRONT, RIGHT, and TOP, I delete two of them and use the other for my first feature
