1

Toggle units on the Edit Page.
While viewing any drawing, look to the top‑right—just under the Take‑Off Quantities panel. Click the Metric / Imperial switch to convert every measurement on the page.

2

Verify or set the drawing scale.
If you need a different scale (e.g., 1:100 metric vs ⅛″ = 1′‑0″ imperial), click the Scale dropdown in the top‑center of the toolbar. Pick a preset or enter a custom ratio—units update instantly

Tips & FAQs
• Switching units recalculates all existing measurements—no re‑drawing needed.
• Always double‑check the scale after toggling units to ensure accuracy.
• Your last‑used unit setting sticks for the session; change it any time via the toggle.
