Changing Units

Below the dimensions, you'll see three buttons: [mm], [cm], and [m].

The dimensions will instantly update to reflect the new unit.

Edit Mode Functionality

In Edit Mode, the add-on calculates dimensions based on the current selection.
If nothing is selected, it shows dimensions for the entire mesh.

If dimensions don't update, try toggling the object's visibility or switching between Object and Edit modes.
Ensure you have an object selected in the scene.
If the add-on doesn't appear, check if it's enabled in the Blender Preferences.
