Make fields respect units entered
When creating a new document, it is annoying having to select the units from a drop down.
Why not just respect the units the user enters: 1920px, 210mm, 10cm, 5"
Typing this in the input field:
1920px
when the dropdown is set to centimeters,
results in 67.7333 cm
It's contra intuitive, even more since the result has the unit typed in the input field.
My request:
Please make this smart: when typing 1920px, the unit should change to pixels,, when typing 10cm, the unit should change to cm.

So you propose to never recalculate any value in any field that uses document units, set in Preferences > Units, for each field Ai has? To allow a typed unit to stick, to stay within a filed, to allow combining inches, pixels, picas, meters, all within one document, for each object it has, respecting every user’s choice? Or do you mean to allow this for only some fields, based on some hidden criteria?
