Modeling in millimetres DOESN'T mean I want areas shown in mm²

[thegurumonkey1]

modelling in millimeters lends itself to models of all scales, from small parts up to buildings, but as a consequence I’m forever counting six decimal places in the ‘entity info’ window to see how many m² a selected area is.
If the areas shown there could be displayed with commas (ie #,###,###,### mm² ) this would surely be a very easy solution to a dilemma I cannot be alone in having.

Thanks for you time and any upvotes.

You could use the desktop version and set the area and volume units to whatever you want.

How are you using this in your hobby modeling?

Thanks DaveR, hadn’t looked at the different options under Units for a while. Great tip.
