I have a need to use mm in a project that started out using inches. I'm using 10 mm barrel hinges and I know I can convert inches to mm by doing the math, but being able to just type in 10mm and have the program convert it would be easier than doing the math manually, which sometimes comes out to be a 6 or 7 digits. I looked through the instructions but couldn't find anything on the subject. Has anyone here done this in a project?

In the job setup just check the mm instead of inches when setting up material size. If you have say 6 inches by 9 inches when you check the mm button it automatic changes to mm.

Rick,

It is easy to use both imperial and metric values in the same project. This Vectric FAQ will take you through it:

This FAQ also shows the conversion commands plus some other time saving tips:
