double unit in sketch

is it possible to display the double unit (in my case mm and feet) in the share of the sketches?

I never had to work in inventor with my feet (intensive as a unit of measure :biggrin:)... now I have to develop a plant with a mix of feet/mm and I would be very comfortable to see both values during the creation of sketches... Is there a "best way"?

to the limit, how do you work in inventor with Anglo-Saxon units? How do we indicate a measure of <3' 6" 7/8>?

document setting > unit > inch/feet/etc

the project will represent you sketches and measurements in inches/foot, however you can always insert metric measures (e.g. 5 mm, inventor will convert it to the corresponding size).
and vice versa.

you can also insert mixed formulas that inventor digests everything,
es 0.2 ft + 4 m + 1 cm + 3 in

or 3' 6" + 7/8 (if you have your thumb as a drive in the file)
 
Okay... thank you for the tips:finger:

but to view the double unit of the share of the sketches (to have immediate visual control) does not talk about it, does it?

but this is very useful.
,
If you work we say in mm, and enter a quota in inches, from the parameters management window you will see the parameter in inches... and when you have to change it by clicking on it will pass from mm to the inch measure you used for insertion
