The coordinates are measured in the traditional typesetting units "points", where 1 inch = 72 points (1 cm = 28 points). Yes, we can convert things like 3cm into points, but I don't know, if its a good idea to support other units?? > The LyX-view: I think cm and in are pretty intuitive too! ok Herbert -- http://www.lyx.org/help/
