When entering dimensional data, the units applied are taken from default settings. The default units are specified independently for each unit type.

To change a unit format, select the required database unit from the drop-down list. An example of the selected unit is displayed.
Note:
The available unit formats in the drop-down lists are dependant on which database
unit value is chosen, (imperial, metric or both systems of measurement).
