How to force calibration before measuring a DWG file in Forge Viewer?

Question

After checking the documentation of Forge Viewer, I found that there is an option to force the calibration before taking measurements in PDF sheets.

But is there a similar option to force calibration on other types of files, like DWG? Or is there any other workaround?

Answer 1

I guess you mean the forcePDFCalibration option mentioned here.

For DWG one option could be setting forceCalibrate to true after loading the model:

var ext = viewer.getExtension("Autodesk.Measure");
ext.forceCalibrate = true;
