Is there a way of re-gauging half way through a design when you realise that you forgot to set the gauge to 2mm instead of the default 00.
Is there a way of setting 2mmfs as my default so I don't have to remember to set the gauge each time ?
Rgds,

Hi Stuart

The default gauge is actually the fictitious T-55, not OO, and if you don't change gauge there are various warnings asking you if you really want to keep using T-55!

You only need to set the gauge once for each project - thereafter it's saved in the box file.

Cheers

Hi Stuart,

You can use the 'Convert Group' function in the Scale/Gauge menu to convert a selected group of templates to a new gauge. It may not be 100% accurate due to several factors but worth a go.

Hi Stuart,

As Rob explained,

Go to gauge > other gauges... menu item.

Select the required new gauge in the list.

Click the convert group button above the list:

2_221511_090000000.png2_221511_090000000.png

If the gauge/scale ratio has changed you may see some slight gaps or overlaps between the templates which need to be tidied up.

regards,

Martin.
