Change model Measurements units with keyboard shortcut?

I’m working on a detailed model of my house and frequently need to change my Measurements units being displayed between Architectural and Fractional format. I do know how to change a model’s units using the Model Info window. Is there any way (on Mac) to change the Units with a keyboard shortcut?

You could use Toggle Units and set keyboard shortcuts.

Is this for display or just for dimension entry?

For Measurements display when using the Tape Measure. For example: 32’ vs 384" or 10’ 9" vs 129". I’ll check out the Toggle Units extension. Thanks Dave.

Thanks again Dave. Installed the Toggle Units extension. Set up some keyboard shortcuts using the standard SU Shortcuts Preferences process. Created one for “/Extensions/Toggle Units/Architectural”. Created a second one for “/Extensions/Toggle Units/Ingeniery”. Note that the “/Extensions/Toggle Units/Fractional” item sets the units to Decimal, not Fractional. On a whim I discovered that the “Ingeniery” item sets the units to Fractional. Other than that little hick-up, the Toggle Units extension solved my problem.
