How to change the projection in a drawing

I just installed SW 2015, when I create a drawing it is in USA projection and not European. My views are therefore reversed.

How do I set the default European projection?

hello, you have to check that the system is in ISO. See in Document Properties Options - SUV Labels

Then save the basemap
or see by right-clicking on the sheet then properties and Cochet Europe instead of USA

Hello

Right-click on your sheet => properties

And there should be an option to change to switch to European projection mode!

To make this change permanent, you need to create a default template with this option checked.

To create a new document template: Open an empty drawing, set the options you want, and save as a .drwdot format.
(Only document options and document properties will be saved, system options are common to all solidworks files).

Thank you

 

I don't think thank you is

(the answer to your question asked) so this answer didn't solve your question

It would have been wise to choose the right answer that solved the problem of the said question

This would have allowed the poster to recover points

since you yourself can't get a point to a question by answering it
