Global Parameter Table Default Units

Hey.

I have set up my default units already to mm, but when I create new Global Parameter table parameters coming always as inches. I can write there for example 5mm, but then the line shows 0,197".

Where can I change default units for Global Parameter table?

From open GLP file, click Alibre gem (top left of screen), select Properties. Then set desired units and check 'set current settings as the default settings for global parameters'.

ALSO - see Global Parameters entry in the Help.

Works fine, thank you DavidJ. I was just confused little, because it did not changed like every other ones did...like assembly etc.

Other workspaces can have defaults set in exactly this way (or from Menu -> File -> Properties) - it was the normal way until recently when the 'Part Data' link was added at top of the Design Explorer in most workspaces.

For consistency of the UI, it would be best if a similar link were available in GLP files.
