Can an option be added to use mm/sec units instead of m/min ?

Hi, m/min and mm/min units are standard in displaying the Cutting Speed and the Feed Rate when CNC machining. Are you talking about cutting speed or the feed rate? Regardless. Unfortunately, the cost of maintaining this feature is prohibitive and does not add value for most users.

I would also like to see the option added to have the feedrate displayed in mm/sec. It is handy for smaller hobby based CNC machines that we use. Most hobby based CAD/CAM design software also asks for these values to be entered in mm/sec resulting in having to manually recalculate everytime. It should not really be a major extra burden to incorporate and maintain in FSWizard as it only requires one option switch with a simple conversion formula associated with it.

Hi, 

I added this feature to the backlog.

It should be in the next release.

Best regards.
