In my profile view I have existing and proposed levels in m.
The level difference is also in m but I'd like it to be scaled to show mm, as this is quicker to read on site.
Does anyone know of a way to achieve this, please? Is there some way to edit the equation and multiply by 1000?
Thanks.

Solved by mathewkol. Go to Solution.
It is a wish list item to allow Expressions to be used in Profile Bands.
The workaround I use is to create an expression in Profile Major Station labels, create a label style that uses the expression. To get it to show up where you want in a band, set the Anchor Point of the component to Anchor Station Extension. This way all the labels will be aligned and then you can use a Y offset to move them down so they line up with your band. Edit your Profile Labels, add this label style and set the correct increment.

Ha. Dumb American, me, didn't realize you can just change your units to mm. Maybe I shouldn't answer when someone's quesiton is in a foreign language, metric.
Thanks, Matt!

There should be no need for any expression. In the label style composer can you not just select mm as the unit? For every other label style you can. I'd attach a screen shot but for some reason C3D can't be installed on my BlackBerry.
Thanks. I navigated my way there and it works.
Millimetre isn't listed, but manually editing 'Ucm' to 'Umm' works. Combined with 'sign always' this is just the trick!
Hi, Can you please elaborate how you got to the lable style set editor to change the units in mm. A screenshot might help. Thanks.
