A Report in "Inch" & Report in "Metric"

What I would like to do with PiWeb is measure my part and have 2 reports generated with different units of measure. One report would have results in "Inch" and the other report will have the data results in "Metric". Is this possible? If so how?

Result element is what I use for this. Have the characteristics report in metric and mask it so it wont be in the report. Then use a formula to convert that number to inches or vice versa. This is my quick way around it. Units can only be changed to measurement plan and not for selected characteristic.

For two reports in separate units, maybe try miniplan. report one in (miniplan #1)mm, then just rerun but unclick "clear existing report" to miniplan #2

I looked in Basic Piweb and couldn't find anything. Maybe one of the Piweb wizards will chime in 😃

If I had to do it.
Pulldown menu
Resources-Results to File set to 999 (This allows Subsequent Evaluation)

Resources-Characteristic settings editor-Units-Length set to inches
In the Printout Header Data - Incremental field for the report put "inches" to make it obvious and adds it to the file name automatically.
Run measurement plan with Multiple printouts active and have it save as PDF automatically.

Resources-Characteristic settings editor-Units-Length set to mm
Plan-Subsequent Evaluation
In the Printout Header Data have the Incremental field for the report put "metric" to make it obvious and adds it to the file name automatically.
Run measurement plan with Multiple printouts active and have it save as PDF automatically.
