I am pretty anal about some thing in my drawings. One of those is the correct display of units. Metres should show as "m", NOT "M"! But there seems to be no way to control this. Some files it displays correctly others it doesn't. And there is no way to change it within a file. I found one of my existing files which displayed the unit correctly as m lower-case, created a scale bar, copy pasted into a file which was displaying it as M upper-case. It immediately converted to upper-case. Please can this be corrected? It has been bugging me for years, and it is a really small thing in terms of programming surely? The international standard for units was set for a reason - that is clarity and consistency across languages and cultures. I prefer to stick to this.
