I am using AUS FULL version of v15 r3267 BUT I still only have the options of degrees or percentage slope in the Info Box or the Roof Settings.
How or why can this be?
Is the Slope (gradient) setting made available only in the US version of AC15?
Other non-US version users - can you comment? AUS, GER, SPA, POR, FIN etc?

I know that US users were quite adamant about needing this - but it seems odd that GS wouldn't just include it in all versions. Let's see what others report...

Cheers,

Same here.

I can confirm the AUS version only has degrees and percent.
No rise/run or even degrees, minutes, seconds (even if working units are set to DMS).
