Changing from Inches to mm in Sketchup

Changing from Inches to mm in Sketchup - 02/03/11 11:49 PM

Hi everyone,

I have a fully done design on Sketchup that was done in Feet and Inches. I would like to take a try at doing the project using the metric system. I can't figure out how to change the setting so all my measurements come up in mm. Any help would be great!

I think it is under Window>Model Info>Units... I just did this for clients in France building in the US. Everything is modeled in Feet/Inches but they are comparing the rooms to some furniture they have - so I did a quick switch and all my dimensions updated automatically.

Thanks bmike! Worked like a charm. Now I just have to wrap my head around the mm thing!
