    Autocad text height rounds off
    When using AutoCAD, I change the text height from the property box to 3/32", and it appears to change scale, however, if I click the property of that same text again, it is displayed at 1/8". Seems like the display is rounding to the nearest 1/6". How can this be displayed to what I have set? Thank you.

    You have to change the main scale before you begin anything in AutoCAD. Go to Format in the drop down menu and then click on Units. Make sure you select Architectural (if that's what you want) and then under that select the scale you want to work with (eg. 1/8", 1/16", etc.). I hope that helps.

    Try this first and then check if your text is showing the way you want it.
