calculation units and working units as view setting

[Patrick M]

I have a situation where I need to show labels with elevation (to sea level) on my foundation plan. Level dims only work for certain elements, and only the top of those elements. Labels can pull top/bottom to sea level, but need to show in decimal  feet, not fractional feet. If I change my working units or calc units to get my foundation plan to show correctly, my door and window schedules are suddenly showing 16.289'x10.157'; which NOBODY wants or needs.

-working units and/or calc units & rules to be a view setting, not a global setting

This is also important for reporting numeric values in tables, which also use Working units or Calculation Units Preferences instead of Dimensions Preferences.

A typical example is the listing of geodetic coordinates, i.e. the position of an object relative to a Survey Point. In my work environment I use "mm", but I would need to output coordinates in "m" to a table and that is not possible.
