TUI command for grid scale in mm

Ralf Schmidt · March 16, 2009, 03:53

Hi!

I wonder, how to scale my grid in mm with help of a journal file.

In the >grid>scale command, there are only scale factors in x,y and z.

But using the GUI, I can select additionally "grid was created in mm" and "change length units". And that is what i need for automatically running a number of files!

Thanks for answering!

Ralf

P.S. - the new forum stile... first impression: i want the old one back

But... i hope, i get used to it....

you just need to separate what you want in two TUI lines:

>mesh scale 0.001 0.001 0.001
>define units length mm

I hope that's what you were looking for
