Calibrate Your Drawing
The first time you add measurements to a drawing, you will first have to calibrate the drawing.

- Enter the length in feet and inches (imperial) or metres (metric).
- Tap Save.
Note: If you ever delete this calibration, all of your measurement markups will still be in place. However, they will be re-calculated when you add in a new calibration.
