Document properties - Language and measurement units 'locked'
완료The Measurements Units are locked to the language, which causes is a problem.
Our corporate language is US English, but page format size is metric (A4) as are the CI guideline (margins, etc.)
Using the English (United States) locale the default Measurement Units is 'Inches. We need this to be Centimeters. This function was available in Classic.
Why is the Measurement Units locked (greyed out)?
Can/will it be unlocked?
If not can you create an English (International) local with default Measurement Units in Centimeters?
Thanks, Erik

Great news! A recent release to Workiva has now made this feature available.
Thanks so much for your patience and feedback. Let us know if you have any questions or need anything else. Cheers!
Hi Erik!
I see what you mean. You are correct, currently the Measurement Units are tied to the Locale chosen in the Language & Formats section of the Document Properties. I've passed along your feedback and use case here for the team to consider allowing a user to set their own here, or to create an English (Int'l) version as you mention.
That being said, one thing you could do is to choose English (Canada) as your Locale, which defaults to Centimeters. You can adjust any of the other formats as needed but the only one that changes for Canada vs. US is the Default Date Order.
Hopefully this helps some. In the meantime, I'll keep you updated on your request. Thanks as always and have a happy Friday!

Hi Mike
Just letting you know that I have the exact same issue, and was about to make a post when I landed on this thread. I would also like to ask for this feature to be made available. The solution of selecting English (Canada) would not be sufficient for me I think because we require US spelling. Canadian English is a blend of US and UK English as far as I am aware
Thanks
Megan

Good insights Megan Daniell. I hadn't thought about the spelling aspect. Thanks for sharing. I'll add your comments to our existing request.
