Hi Pole,

The units in Sketcher are the units of the model.

You can change the Model Units via:

File > Prepare > Model Properties

Units > change

select the units to change to > Set

select if you would like to Cover or Interpret dimensions

Convert dimensions - 1" becomes 25.4 mm

Interpret dimensions - 1" becomes 1 mm

Thanks,

Amit

Dimensions created in "standalone" sketcher are unitless and will assume model units when imported to sketch in created model.

You can quickly test it by creating a simple sketch with New > Sketch and saving it to disk, and then creating one part with mm as default units and second part with inches as units. In both cases, when you import sketch to model, you'll get the same dimensions that you created in the sketch saved to disk (e.g. if you created in sketch a 10x3 rectangle, in mm model it'll be 10x3 mm and in inch model it'll be 10x3 inches, if you import it with scale 1.0, of course).
