Override Display in Linear Measurement Tool?


MeTheMachine

Question

I have set up my vectorworks document to use inches and feet. I often use the linear measurement tool to display measurements and at times I'd like to display inches. Is there a way to override the feet and inches, while still maintaining my "inches and feet" setting in my Documents>Units preference?

If you mean Linear Dimension then yes:

You can use Dual Dimensions which will display both your primary dimension unit (' "") and then also your secondary dimension unit (") or

you can deselect the radio button in the Object Info Palette to hide the primary unit.

If you mean the Tape Measure tool then no, you need to reset the Drawing Units to " (and then back again)
