Units Settings

AutoCAD DDUNITS (Format > Units) Command

In MicroStation, drawing units for the current file are set under the Working Units category of the DGN File Settings dialog box (Settings > Design File). The unit settings are applied to measurements, cells, references, and dimensions.

When opening a DWG file in MicroStation, the DWG Open Options dialog box contains options for units to be used in the DWG file format. The most reliable way to retrieve units from an existing DWG file is to use the Design Center Units setting for these options.
