Weight units are messing up

Aug 08, 2007 2 Replies

Hey



We keep having a problem with weight units, we had used the same templates for years and when we converted to 2007 it suddenly changed the part weight property to grams instead of kilograms on its own, causing a lot of problems since it dosnt fit into our BOMs and having added the "kg" in the drawing sheets and inserting it in grams is of course wrong. I have resaved all the templates with the kg again, but some of my users gets it in grams sometimes still.



So the question is if I can do anything with the custom property that converts it to kg no matter what (not sure it can be done since the evaulated value is just a number and not a linked property).



Have you looked at setting custom units in your templates?

Yes

and it did work in all versions prior to 2007 with the same templates
