These settings actually indicate a unit in which you wish to import blocks. It is not meant to indicate the units of the DXF file itself. As far as I could see, there is no setting in the DXF reference that allow to specify in which unit the file is made. I think it's best not to use the settings above as it might not indicate the wish of the user. I'll close this issue until new info arises |
