I agree with Bruce. It would be nice to be able to set global defaults that apply to all units of the same type and the ability to override specific types if necessary. -Jonny On Tue, Nov 4, 2008 at 1:47 AM, Bruce Mutton <bruce.mutton@paradise.net.nz>wrote:

LRUD data are still interpreted as metres. All you need to do in this case is to specify, that also dimensions are entered in feet
units length dimensions feet
But probably dimensions units should be set up also when length units are set up. If you agree, I will fix it in therion.
I am happy the way it is, but if change is desired then my vote would be to make dimensions units equal length units unless the user specifically sets both of them to be different to each other. This would allow complete flexibility, and keep it simple for users who only think to set one of them. Same approach could be taken for all length type units (depth, position, etc) Same approach could also be taken for all directional type units (compass, clino etc) Bruce
