larkim May 2021 8:02am, 24 May 2021 14,463 posts	Quote Pin larkim I suppose it's a bit British centric, but it does annoy me that I can't choose to mix and match my units on various sites / services. I think in m/cm and kg for body units, but miles for running and cycling, but I don't think that's a combo many other countries use.

Fragile Do Not Bend May 2021 8:47am, 24 May 2021 8,437 posts	Quote Pin Fragile Do Not Bend That annoys me about my Forerunner 45s, I’ve got it set to imperial so I can see things in miles, but that means I get the temperatures on the weather screen in Fahrenheit.
Sushi. May 2021 8:56am, 24 May 2021 29,037 posts	Quote Pin Sushi. azx, but I like the quirky combos of both. Though eventually, after years, I did learn to think only in kg at work so maybe by the time I'm using a zimmer to run I'd have got my head round it. 🤣
Badger May 2021 9:06am, 24 May 2021 13,884 posts	Quote Pin Badger For running I do distances in miles and heights in metres. Apparently that's called British units in some places so I can't be that unusual, though it's definitely weird. I have tried to get my head around paces in min/km instead, but there are all those races which only have mile markers...
chunkywizard May 2021 9:09am, 24 May 2021 12,099 posts	Quote Pin chunkywizard There are various CIQ data fields that allow 'Opposite' units to be displayed. So you can set up a page show data fields in chosen or opposite fields together. That should work.
