Imperial measurements

Post by secs »

I was playing around with the designer software and created an enclosure. I selected a face to edit, went to that face and did a cutout. I then used the measurement tool. It comes up in inches whilst the rest of the system is in mm. I even hit the properties of the measurement and it showed its properties in mm. How do I get it to display the measurements in mm?

Hello,
The measurement tool was created for our internal use, then we decided it was useful enough to include in designer. We will make it obey the user's preferences at some point, but for now if you need metric measurements, the distance tool will give you those (just not in a nice graphical format).
