Set units when using coordinates

Lee_Hesketh

Hi, when I print coordinates of a point, it prints them in metres. How could I set it such that it prints the coordinates in millimetres?
Thanks

There's no way to do this globally. If you're printing one length, you can do this inline each time you print, or define a function:

export function printmm(length is ValueWithUnits)
{
    println(length / millimeter ~ " mm");
}

If you're printing a larger structure with lengths inside of it, I can't think of an easy way to make that change.
