When I make a 3d to 2d sheet option- I cannot get dimensioning tool to use the scale. Instead of getting 77" it displays 4"

How do I get accurate dimensions on the 2d sheet?


Dimensioning in the 3d full view works fine.

You might want to check that you have the draw view activated such that the dimension is within the draw view scale.

I will try and figure that out. Currently I just highlight the object and click 3d to 2d.

thanks
