Relocate CLine using Inches

Next

I've set my units to feet/inches. When placing a CLine, I can't seem to get it to move by keyed-in inches. For example, I place a vertical (along Z) CLine and then select Relocate CLine and type 2" the line won't snap to that distance. Keying in 0.0833*2 works, but is annoying.

Is there a secret way to be able to key in the relocate CLine distance in inches?

Thanks.

Looks like I forgot to set my file's unit system first after all.

Nevermind! :-)

Hi Skwerm - sounds like you've got it figure out - if you have unit set to "No unit system" then you won't be able to type in a distance that includes a units designator like 2" or 5cm or stuff like that.
