Scale bar showing as metric on imperial drawing

Hi,

 

I am doing a small project in imperial units. All the project settings have been changed to imperial yet when I insert the default scale bar from the Object Tool I always get a metric scale bar. 

The view has been saved out with all the imperial settings yet I still get a metric scale. Really quite annoying. 

 

Anyone know what I'm doing wrong here? Sample screenshot included..

Actually I just checked, and in Archicad 28, the legacy object library was included within the installer. So all you have to do is open Library Manager and load the linked library directly from Application folder: /Graphisoft/Archicad 28/Archicad Legacy Objects

Once you do, you will find the object with the name "Graphic Scale_NCS"

Here's a copy of my scale bar object. It is metric by default, but there is a scaling option so you can scale it by 2.54 to get inches.
