HelloIn the context of new seed files that are created, the question arises what is the best way to configure the DGN file resolution if you draw in metric as well in imperial system and want to have the greatest possible compatibility…….The basic idea is, how can I configure the metric and imperial seed files so I can later reference one to the other / change drawing units from one to the other / copy elements from one to another, with minimal effort?Therefore, it is necessary to configure the factor 25.4 as best as possible in the seed files to avoid a tedious calculation of factors during drawing / referencing / copying / changing units etc….. in both direction.Scaling an inch drawing to mm, the scale factor is an exact 1 digit point number 25,4 what makes scaling in this way easy.But scaling from mm to inch is more complicate….., the scale factor is 1/25=0,03937007874015748
What would be your solution for resolution setting of each seed files?

Hi,Thanks for your explanation.I did some tests with different design files and in fact this setting does not seem as important as initially suspected.My used settings are as following and should be ok.
For inches drawings a resolution 100000 per distance inch and for metric drawings a resolution 1000 per distance millimeter.
THANKS
