Not sure about in an audio engineering context, but to a layperson in the United States at least, yards are rarely used as a unit outside of American Football. AF is a very popular sport, and yards are displayed with decimal points frequently when talking about statistics related to the sport. I'd say that your average person in this country wouldn't think it was strange to see yards represented with a decimal point, but generally we are used to seeing feet + inches, or feet paired with a fraction.

For example:
0.5 yards represented as 1 ft. 6" or 1 1/2 ft.

@ustk Sure thing!

Anecdotally, all multimedia gear, audio cables, etc. are sold by the foot in this country. So that's likely the unit that your end user is expecting. The only thing we buy by the yard is fabric, haha.

Edit: Feet with a decimal point is likely the best option here until you're to measurements that are less than 1 foot. Sub-foot measurements should be in inches with a decimal point. Not ideal considering how all of our measurement devices are marked, but your average consumer would know how to navigate this. Ideally in sub-foot measurements, you round your inches to the nearest 1/16" unless that level of inaccuracy breaks functionality.

Wow, prompt service here, haha.

Thanks everyone! Of course the solution was staring me right in the face.

Hey gang,

I feel like a total moron here. This is terrible first impression/first post, but how do I load stuff like this into HISE from the forum:

It doesn't appear to be embedded as a downloadable file, etc. Not sure what I'm missing here, but I do feel pretty dumb.

Thanks in advance! This forum has been a great resource so far in learning the software, I'd just like to be further self-sufficient and I've hit a wall.
