United Kingdom metric measurement for square metres is 'm2' and not 'sq m', Can I alter?

There was an error rendering this rich post.

Hello everyone, I am trying to see if I can change the default metric area measurement label on the system from 'sq m' to a familiar 'm2' label here in the UK. All the instructions, videos online, help searches are silent on the matter. Also been in touch with Tech Support and they were unable to help and suggested I reach out here. Fingers crossed for someone who knows how to or if this is even possible. Many thanks, Phil

@Marco M if this isn't an option yet, maybe this should become an "Idea" to vote on.

While it's not a convention I've seen I suppose ft2 and in2 should be included in this feature/option.

Maybe even include the square foot symbol while we're at it.

Moved this over to Product Feedback for voting!

Yep, +1 vote from me, definately weird seeing sq m, and cu m, instead of m2 and m3

Bullet points & Indent text

Keyboard Shortcuts for Assigning Statuses
It would be a huge time saver to have keyboard shortcuts for assigning markup statuses. Numerous workflows (e.g. QA/QC and design reviews, punch/back-check) involve multiple status changes for markups, and often times there are multiple statuses (or state models) to choose from. On large projects, with 100's if not 1,000's…
Optimisation for the new arm based windows machines
I hope you're doing well. I'm reaching out because I have a couple of suggestions that I think could make Bluebeam even better. First off, I've been really impressed with the new ARM-based Windows machines, especially those using the Snapdragon Elite X. They’re powerful, have great battery life—kind of like MacBooks in…
Alert attendee log
It would be great be able to see to whom and when the "alert attendee" has been done. Today you can see exactly who and when markups has been accepted but there are no info at all if a markup has been alerted to someone.
