MeasureIt_ARCH Unit Settings

MeasureIt_ARCH unit settings are found in the scene properties panel, under the Blender's normal units panel. MeasureIt_ARCH uses Blender's unit setting by default, but adds a few additional formating options.

Note

Unit Overrides can also be specified per dimension for Aligned, Axis, and Area Dimensions if you want to mix unit systems in the same file. Mixing unit systems is generally not reccomended, but for some countries (Looking at you Canada) where building codes use metric and construction standards use imperial, having both available can be handy.
