DRC Default units

BrotherTheo

Hi,

 

I know its minor, but the DRC used to default to mil, and after several years I am in the habit of thinking in those terms. Now suddenly it defaults to mm. Can I change it back?

    Tim,

     

    there is an option for setting preferred units. From the help:

     

    Interface.PreferredUnit

    When displaying a numerical value in dialog input fields, the units are

    determined automatically, so that the representation with the least

    number of decimal digits is chosen. This can be controlled by setting

    this parameter to '0' for automatic unit determination (default), '1'

    for imperial units, and '2' for metric units.

     

      SET Interface.PreferredUnit 1 ;

     

    in the commandline should work.
