Fix FreeCAD Draft Dimensions Changing Units Randomly | Dimensions showing in mm instead of m
In this quick tip for FreeCAD I show how to change the default behavior of dimension with the MKS (m, kg, s) unit system, where they change measurement units based on the distance they are annotating. This usually means that the dimension displays milimeters instead of meters.
To change this behavior, you have to override unit in the dimensions setup (Edit → Preferences → Draft → Text and dimensions). You can select any measurement unit here. This unit will be applied to all new dimensions.
