hi folks,

is possible to to customize the units (form the properties section) when i want to see the mass /weight / surface?

i would love to get my results in liter / kg

Density    0.008 g / mm^3
Mass    4.939E+04 g
Physical Material    Steel
Volume    6.292E+06 mm^3
World X,Y,Z    0 mm, 0 mm, 0 mm

Hi @stiller.design,

I don't believe that you can change your units for Volume to be Liters, but what you can do is change your Active Units to meters, as opposed to millimeters and this will display your mass in kilograms and your Volume in meters cubed. To convert from meters cubed to Liters is simple as well, just multiply by 1000. As far as preferences go, in the preferences if you change your default Modeling units to meters instead of millimeters, these results will always display this way. 

Are you also seeing an issue with the Copy to Clipboard functionality?

Thanks,
