English to metric?

I was just looking at the victor in the first cad library and it is extremely small. It is less that .1 in in each direction. I was searching the old posts for an answer, and someone suggested that it might be in meters. So now I want to change the whole victor assembly into meters so it is not so small. Does anybody know how to do this?

Thanks,
Daniel

Tools -> Document settings -> select "meters"

If that doesnt work, you will probably need to scale it up in assembly. Not sure how many inches per meter, but I bet google does.

For the record, the meter thing didn't work, but I downloaded a victor from the first cad library and it worked. I guess whatever that was in our library was wrong. Oh, well.
