How do I convert the drawing components and dimensions, correctly scaled, to Metric units?ĪutoCAD 2014 has a very easy process, (just watched the Lynda video) but I haven't stumbled across one for Revit (yet!).Learn Revit Architecture with an engaging, real-world continuous step-by-step tutorial The drawing I've opened (that was created using an Imperial Template in the U.S.) opens up as imperial. When I installed Revit Architecture 2014, I chose an Architecture, Metric template. (I want to learn Revit, not get angry at imperial units!)

I could learn, but it just seems pointless for now. I am in the UK and I definitely don't use imperial, I was taught only metric in school (yes - I am part of the next generation) and I just don't want to work in imperial units. I have downloaded a project that is set to Imperial as it was created by a guy in the USA who freely gave it as an aid to help people learn Revit.

I have a feeling, because I'm new and everyone on here is a lot more experienced than myself, that I am asking a question everyone already knows the answer to.

I have been surfing the web in search of the answer and the closest that I have come to is here, however I don't think this specific question has been targeted yet (I could be wrong, I may have not gone far back enough in the threads).
