I get this message every time I import multiple items from Fusion. If I click yes, change to inches, the size is blown up out of proportion but if I click no all items are normal size. I have been trying to find a solution for ages without success so now I just click no with the box checked "do this for all instances" and carry on as normal and everything works out ok. If anyone has a solution I would love to hear it as it can be a bit annoying.

Got the same issue with STL exported from Autodesk Inventor 2022. Funny is that not all my models have this issue. The only visible reason so far is using EN version of Inventor vs. CZ version. Models made with CZ version have the issue. All documents settins are set to ISO/mm.

After NOT accepting the recalculation to inch, the dimensions seem to be exactly 10x smaller. Using scale factor 1000% as a temporary workaround.

PrusaSlicer v2.4.2

I did a shutdown of Fusion 360 and Slicer and tried again and it seem to clear up.

nothing a swift kick can't fix.

After updating to Prusa Slicer 2.4.1

I keep getting a message saying items seem to be defined in inches and places object outside plate dimensions.

I am using Fusion 360 and have checked my setting and it is set to mm.

Haven't had any similar issues.

Looking for some assistance
