Docs

All converters (except CalculatedExpressionCoverter) have a DisplayUnit property, which defines which units to convert to when displaying the value in the control. This is also the default unit assumed when no unit is provided by the user when editing a value.

LengthConverter accepts a special DisplayUnit static string LenghtConverter.Fractional to display the value in fractional feet and inches for imperial units.

The values are saved in imperial units (Force = kip, Lenght = in, Time = s) on ConvertBack.
