Hi all,
No doubt I've missed it but I can find no way to change the base
dimensioning system from imperial to metric.
Please advise if this is possible, and if so, how.
Calc is seems ok but writer for page sizes, label sizes etc is
imperial in my version 3.

Base uses Writer to produce its forms; forms are ODF text
documents. So, open an untitled document in Writer and then make your
changes in the Writer section. (Tools > Options > LibreOffice Writer).
For the Mac, use LibreOffice > Preferences > LibreOffice.
I use Base on a regular basis. Living in the USA, a new LO version
use Inches. I change this to cm in Writer, and I can then edit my forms
using cm instead of inches.
