You are correct, I only worked in Inches so I never noticed the different calculator, if you change to Feet you get both ft. and in.

In Inches

I also recommended some calculator changes here:

> The problem that this feature will solve: On the a tablet its a pain to select between ( ) can we have a quick selection switching buttons. What can’t you achieve without this feature? Hard to select dimensions, breaks your flow.
