Edit and Create New Units

The Units tab of the Options window enables you define the values for the unit's multiplier and divider. Nine default units have been defined, however, the values of these units can be modified according to your requirements, or you can create your own.

Add a new unit

To add a new unit:

  1. Click Add Unit at the bottom of the Label column.
  2. Enter the name in the Label field.
  3. Enter the multiplier and divider in the appropriate fields.
  4. Click OK to save the changes.

Reset

Click to restore all supplied units back to the default settings. User added units are removed.

Defining your own units

When defining your own units, it is useful to think of the Multiplier and Divider values as being a ratio of 1:1. The Multiplier represents grams and the Divider represents milliliters. As a result, the default values for g/mL are Multiplier=1, Divider=1, while for g/L the Multiplier=1 and the Divider=1000.
