Unit compatibility
Not all units are compatible with each other, the following is a list of compatible units and how they are handled.
| Units | Handling |
|---|---|
cm, m | m measurements are converted to cm |
deg, grad, rad, turn | Units are converted to either degrees or radians based on use case (eg: to degrees for operators like + and - and to radians for math, like sin(x)) |
Notes
- Pixels aren’t real, a pixel is defined as
1 / 40. This comes from the fact that an empty text display entity (Text display entity with content"") has a size that’s 1/40th of a block. Thus a pixel is 1/40th, or0.025.
