Inches and Feet to Centimetres and Metres

[Stadinx]

Hi

I am a beginner using VisioXP, PC skills generally pretty good. I am based
in Australia, so we use metric (metres and Centimetres)

My question is, how do you change the default setting from inches and feet
to centimentres and metres. I am trying to create a floorplan of a house
using metres but cannot work out how to change from inches.

your help is appreciated

There's a tab in the File > Page Setup diaog that let's you set this for the
drawing. Give it a go!

If you're talking about the dimension lines, then you right-click the
dimension line, and configure it to your liking. Then you right-click and
choose something like "Set Page Settings to be like Me", I can't remember
excactly what it says. Basically, you use your current dimension line as a
template for the default dimensioning style.
