Hi,

Although my default unit is set to mm, when I create a shape it shows up but then the width and height at the top are shown in pixels. How can I make it show in mm?

    Right click on the Width or Height box and change the unit

    Thanks!  This works in the Properties Window also.

      Dave, every single object that is created is presented with px dimensions - so right clicking on every dimension on every object to change to mm is kind of tedious and a little extremely old fashioned.

      Is there a proper solution?

      Thanks
