Open the file BestFitOnRef.3dr.
This file contains several clouds in meters and one in feet as well as a reference mesh in meters.
Show only the clouds named "Aligned Dam" and "Aligned Dam in ft" and press A to make a Zoom All.
Select both clouds, right click and select Properties. Have a look at the size of each cloud: one is roughly 3 times bigger than the other.
To do the conversion:
-
Show only cloud in feet and select it, then go to Resize.
-
Define the center (0, 0, 0).
-
Then, select the option Same scale for X, Y and Z and enter 0.3048 (converting feet to meters requires a multiplication by 0.304799).
-
Press OK.
Have a second look at the properties: the size is now exactly the same.
