Fusion 360: Scaling an imported SVG or DXF to exact dimensions

Fusion 360 does not have the capability of scaling an imported SVG/DXF to exact dimensions. You can only do proportional scaling during the import. In many cases the SVG/DXF will be imported in with the wrong size, forcing you to correct it in Illustrator, CorelDraw or Inkscape if you need exact dimensions . (1) Simply import the SVG/DXF. (2) Window Select the entire SVG/DXF imported profile. (3) Unfix it. (4) Then use the dimensional tool to specify height, width of the imported SVG or even dimension a single element. Everything will rescale proportionally to that dimension. There is a limit to how much you can up or down scale it with this technique until the sketch profiles break due to inherit SVG precision. You can only dimension a single element with this technique. Dimensioning two or more elements will break the profile. If you dimension the wrong element, simply delete that dimension and select the correct element. Using parameters will not work. If you have an already dimensioned sketch that you want to import the SVG into then create a new sketch on the same plane or face (I highly recommend doing this all the time). Import the SVG. Unfix it. Dimension it to scale it. Copy the profile. Simply paste it to the targeted sketch. *** Note***: You must have "Scale entire sketch at first dimension" enabled in design preferences for this technique to work. Then you can disable this after the rescale. Hopefully this tip will save you blood, sweat and...
