Dimension Box is Unresponsive

if you add a units suffix it changes the input to those units, ignoring the model’s current unit settings.

But note: if you are using Metric units, typing a value in Imperial (foot, inch, fraction) units is badly bugged. See this thread:

SU doesn't recognise fractional inches (e.g., 1/2") as an imperial measurement when units are mm

I thought that SU would recognise imperial units (feet, inches and fractions) in the Measurements box, even if model units were set to mm. It doesn’t recognise fractional inches. And no, I’m not using curly quotes. Drawing in mm with two decimal places, I tried to push-pull 1/2" (where I type in the 1/2" characters. I get 0.5mm instead. if I type in 0.5", I get what I expect - half an inch or 12.7mm. This seems to me like a bug, or at least behaviour I don’t expect. It seems also to be true…
