      I'm looking into SU Ruby scripting. Just noticed that when I created a face with 100 length it ends up as 2540mm. (model units set to mm)
      Do I always have to work with inches, or can I toggle some property to make the Ruby treat values as metric? I don't like these Yankee-Doodle inches...

        SketchUp's internal units are all in inches. If you prefer to work in meters, just add '.m' after every number.
