Is it possible to change an existing dimension from ft and inches to only inches? For example, if my dimension is 4’ 10" can I selectively change it to 58" so that only it is in inch format and the rest of my dimensions remain in ft and inches?
Specifically, I would want to change the format attached to the dimension so that the system converts it to inches.
Operating System is Win10 64 Bit. QCAD version 3.25.2.0
The answer is: Yes and no … 
Yes.
No. You can’t mix Dimension formats …
… but you can manipulate selected dimension.
If you select a dim you are then able to manipulate the label within the Property Editor. If you type in 58" it will replace the measured value of 4’ 10". This text is then static what means it will not change in the case that you manipulate the dim.
If you like to combine a dynamic text with a static text then you can use <> which represents the actual measurement and a static text like (58") which stays static.
Not exactly what I wanted but it will work. Thank you!
Would be nice to be able to selectively change dimension formats, though …
