    Default Drawing is in meters but surface is in feet

    Hi there,

    My drawing's setting is in meters and I even type in the comman 'un' and it says its in meters, but when I click the surface and add labels its in feet. I want it in meters.

    Is there a certain way to fix that?

    Never mind.. I figured it out... I went into the drawing settings and went into ambient settings... most of them were in feet... yay me
