Hi,

This is the problem we are experiencing: we open an *.dwg AutoCad drawing in StarDraw, we select a unit scale of 1" as per the *.dwg scale and we configure the grid of StarDraw in document properties to 1".

So far all is good and all items in *.dwg are to scale with the StarDraw grid and tools. However, when we go to insert a pictorial symbol, let's say an Audica microdot, which is 4" in diameter, it appears on our drawing as a microscopical dot. We didn't even notice it was there until we realised what was happening. To get a reasonable view of the inserted symbol, we need to scale it up by 2050%.

Any help with this minor problem will be greatly appreciated in helping us evaluate our demo version.
