How do you set up Inventor to draw 1:1?
I have always worked in AutoCad and they have a model and paper space. Where in model space you draw 1:1 and then scale it in paper space, How do you do that in inventor?
I'm new to inventor
Thank you

You model your solid at full size, then open a new drawing (using the template -metric or imperial-), then insert a base view and corresponding projected views.

But always remember inventor is nothing like autocad

Why would you draw in autocad ?.

try doing the tutorials in Inventor just to get you started. they show you how to model things.
