What is difference Between US Units and Metric Units in Microsoft Visio?

Many people don't know the difference between US Units and Metric Units in Microsoft Visio either they are working with an earlier version (MS Visio 2010, 2013, or 2016) or the latest version (Microsoft Visio 2019 or with upcoming). When we are working with our drawing then option appears on our screen to select the units then we select US Units and sometimes we select Metric Units.

The answer is simple, both measure Unites. Now, 50% of our concept is clear about US Units & Metric Units.

US Units measure in Feets & Inches While Metric Units measure in Meters, Centimeters, or Millimeters. 

Now, we will show you where these Units appear while we are working in Microsoft Visio.

Go to the start button of our computer or desktop. Then search "Visio" then Visio will appear in searches.

Press Enter key then Microsoft Visio will open then this will show something like this.

Now, we can select a Blank Drawing or select Templates from the libraries. I am going with you, for now, Blank Drawing.

Blank Diagram >Metric Units >US Units

Important tasks start right now about Metric Units & US Units.

Now, we select Metric Units then we see what happens with Metric Units.

We have to be familiar with Ruler. One ruler appears on the left edge of the drawing window of the Microsoft Visio and the other appears on the top of the drawing.

Now, we will show how we can see units for Metric Units in Microsoft Visio.

In the Design tab. > Size.

We can see all sizes in "cm" as we know that we are working with Metric Units and Units in Metric Units are Meters, Centimeter, and Milimetters.

here is a full-size Microsoft Visio.

If we follow the same steps then we will see the Inches and Feets Units in US Units in Microsoft Visio 2019. We are using Microsoft Visio 2019 if you are using the old version and facing any problem with it then you can leave a comment and we will help you.
