Currently I am making an Imperial(In)/Metric (MM) template so that I don't constantly have to convert when I have jobs from out of the country.

I set up the "Multiplier for all units" to the correct amount (25.4). And once I started to test it everything worked great.

Although I did have a problem when clicking on the dimension by moving the middle snap box to move the text around. The primary units and alternative units would get closer. I actually like the spacing when it gets closer but don't want to have to click the middle box of every dimension every time I make a new one.

Is there a way to keep the distance constant between the units constant?
