Hello folks,

I am new to this forum that I was searched for and found. I am looking for a listing of 3D modelers that supports precise measurements like mm, cm, inches, foot, etc instead of units. I only know that Lightwave 3D does. How about Blender 3D that I am using? If not, when would Blender support that?

Thanks!

I am just curious, what do you need it for?
Since you can scale anything in a 3d program all the units a relative.
So you just take the default Blender Unit and call it mm and measure everything else in mm.

Does it make sense for you?
