Answer CADian core engine has a facility to enter values in English Units, if Units are set to Architectural or Engineering.For the routines like walls and doors etc., one can enter values in inches without quote ( for inches eg. 14 (not 1 2 or 14 . The distance between lines will be 14 units and these units can be considered as English or Metric. All of the libraries from CADianARCH are based on the metric system in mm. Therefore, if you convert values in your drawing from Metric to English, the result should be wrong. We are preparing the English-oriented libraries. When they are ready, you should be also able to use inch values directly into a drawing.
