Hi!

 

Im a beginner in Revit. How do I change unit in wall thickness selection? I have changed generally project units for mm, and it works when I'm drawing a line, than it shows lenght in mm, but when I want to change wall thickness I have inches instead of mm.

Are you saying that you want the Project Units for Length to remain in Millimeters, but you want to enter Inches sometimes? Did you know that Revit will automatically convert values to Project Units? In other words, you don't need to change Project Units to convert millimeters to inches. Just use the inch symbol (") after the number.  It will automatically be converted to mm.  12" will become 304.8.
