Thank you for your response. I will try this when I use one in metric.

Another concern is building materials being different in other contries. I wanted to find some details specifically for the US market so it better matches what I need. One example is wall details using dimesnional lumber instead of concrete block.

I don't know if this will really help you but if you have your files setted with imperial units you can INSERT and not copy/paste files setted with metric units and the blocks will come at scale 1/1, with the good dimensions and with the indication of the metric measures when you read their properties ( Ctrl + 1 ).

Hello,

I'm trying to find US Imperial blocks but many of the ones I find here are metric. Is there a way to filter for Imperial? I'm specifically looking for 2d house designs blocks such as doors, windows, toilets, cabinets etc.

Thank You!
