Convert metric 3d polylines to metric feature lines error

When converting metric 3d polylines to feature lines with units set on metric, drawing properties metric and using the australia/new zealand settings and command "create featureline from objects", for some reason the resulting 3d featurelines end up imperial???

Unit overrides are possible in the command settings. At the following location are there any Imperial units set?

Check the "Elevation" units.

 

Toolspace>Settings Tab>Grading>Commands>CreateFeatureLines>

Yeah that was it, I had to change all values under create feature lines including sub-catagories:

Distance, dimension, coordingate, area, volume and speed.  It turns out the original DXF I was working on was exported out of Vulcan and therefore the settings somehow defaulted to imperial,

thanks Jay,
