I only ever work in metric but I’ve been asked to draw a design in inches. I have no idea how to insert measurements like 6 3/8", 15 11/16" etc. Can someone please explain how to insert fractions into the height and width box. Thank you
Divide the upper number by the lower number to achieve the decimal.
1/2 = .5
3/8 = .375
11/16 = .6875

All number fields are capable of both systems. Just enter „1/2in“ into the field and it will get translated to mm.

Combine the other suggestions:
- Tell LightBurn to use inches:
- Enter the size as an equation:
The padlock icon controls whether the shape / group resizes with the same aspect ratio. Click to unlock when you must change the width and height separately.
Done!
