Zone Area Volume results in cu ft rather than sq ft please.

The Zone tool now presents the Volume of the Zone in Square Feet, but square feet is obviously not a measurement of volume it is a measurement of area. The Volume Presentation therefore simply wrong in every single instance of Zone Volume Representations. Can this be fixed so that we can use the Volume option on the Zone Display? Thanks.

I'm not able to get the zone tool to report s.f. for volume - not sure where/how you're seeing this?

Also, did you try changing the Calculation volume units to your desired units? See attached.

hm... I think there must be a glitch then in this file, because all those settings say cubic feet but it still shows up as square feet. Maybe it will change back to normal on the next project. Thanks for trying.
