Hi Shawn

The Inventor from Autodesk has metric as default

Metric is nice 1m=10dm=100cm=1000mm

This one is god 1 square dm =1kg H2O (aprox)this is so nice when you calculate deplacement. ISO system is also nice

One trick when you convert from Imperial to Metric is to only use mm.

I think the only guy that still belives i Imperial is Homer Simpsons Father and his buddys :-)

Hans.
