Units command?
If you're talking about AutoCAD based products. The UNITS command controls how the program displays angles and distances from the drawing. If you have one unit long ( I like to consider these Drawing Units ). So if your units are set to Feet. The program will report that the line is 1 foot long. Set to meters it reports 1 meter long. The exception is that if the drawing is set to Architectural it will report that the 1 Drawing Unit long line is 12 inches long.
Changing the setting changes nothing in the drawing. If you have a foot based drawing and change the units to meters. The 1 Drawing Unit line remains one unit long. It just will now say it's one meter long instead of 1 foot long.
