Choose from six area units and two length units. Your choices apply to the drawing, inspector, model, and actual-size rooms.

Available area units are :ui[Square Meters], :ui[Square Feet], :ui[Square Yards], :ui[Tsubo], :ui[Jo (Tatami Mat)], and :ui[Pyeong]. For tatami mat and tsubo conversions, see [Area unit conversions](https://soji.dev/en/madoriwalk/support/rooms/area-unit-conversion.md).

## Change the length unit

1. Tap :ui[Settings] at the top of the Floor Plan window.
2. Tap :ui[Length Unit] under :ui[Units] and choose :ui[Meters] or :ui[Feet & Inches].
3. Tap :ui[Done].

With :ui[Feet & Inches], room tiles and actual-size room labels use a format such as 16′ 5″. The inspector's :ui[Width] and :ui[Depth] fields take decimal feet (ft).


Total area and individual room areas use the numbers and symbols for your chosen unit. Your choices are saved for the next launch. If the display uses an unexpected unit, see [Area or length units don't look as expected](https://soji.dev/en/madoriwalk/support/troubleshooting/units-look-wrong.md).
