There is a minor bug in the Material Library Editor “Preview material properties.” When previewing properties that were entered in Imperial units, the units shown are correct but the values have been converted to SI units. The units are used correctly during an analysis, but the discrepancy can cause some confusion. Units and values match when viewed in the Material Editor."
