Property Value

Type: String
Remarks
The unit abbreviation may be used in display of values. Spatial calibrations that are expressed in known physical units should have the unit specified using the Unit property, which will set the default unit abbreviation. The abbreviation can be set without affecting the ability to convert the units to other absolute units. The unit abbreviation should not contain a period since in cases of area it may have "2" added at the end, e.g. mm2.
Note Note
Since this is an abbreviation of the unit name, it is assumed by most unit display functions to be at most several characters long. Setting the unit abbreviation to something longer than 4-6 characters is likely to cause display of values to be cut off in most dialogs.
