IR SS1 (246)
for about a week i get this message each time i save corridor and tmls (i didnt have this problem on the same project before but i did mess a bit with variable manager). i created both tml, corridors stles from skratch. i got metric option selected in project defaults, i tried to save tml/ird with options convert imperial to metric. still nothing. why i get this message? how to set it back to metric?
Sorry if this question is a little silly... But, what units is your drawing in?
I remember I got the message at first and then I changed my drawing's units. Unitless or 2 in AutoCAD, and Meters and Millimeters in Microstation.
screenshot of settings. as you can see all set to metric and still every time i save itl and ird i get this damn message. how can this be xins fault? where could be this setting?
hi,
your XIN is set right (Project Options). Please check units in your ITL (see attached screen).

still everything set to metric. imo this is some kind of IR glitch. i didnt have this before tho. (like 3 weeks ago with the same version)
Hi,
Please check you IRD file. There is unit definition as well.
You can send me your XIN ITL and IRD file and I will test them on my PC.
I have managed with this problem in that way(do copy of Your ITL before):
step 1: Save as.. --> Options --> Convert Metric to Imperial and save Your ITL with this option
step 2: Save as.. --> Options --> Convert Imperial to Metric and save Your ITL with this option
For next savings set no convert.
after these operations problem disappeared.
Kind regards, Kzzysztof
yes but converting messes up units (lenghts of verticals, horizontals). and every time creating new roadway, templates you never know if you get the same error msg again.
after first step, of course lenghts are changed, but after second step they should change to original lenghts You have. In my case it helps and message stopped appear. I did the same with IRD file.
ah ok. thanks ill try that
I have recently been getting the same problem.
I have tried the below conversion through saving, however when I convert back to metric I get the meesage "Imperial units used while creating this library".
I too have checked both the template and IRD files and they both show metric units.
Any other suggestions on this?
