Determines the units used to display and enter numerical values in the application. Different unit systems may be available in different databases.

All numerical data values will be converted automatically to appear in the unit system you have chosen. Any data entered is converted to the underlying database unit when it is saved in the database.

This setting controls whether or not search criteria that no longer apply to the data returned in the current search results are automatically removed from the filters panel.

This setting controls whether or not the search panel groups containing the filter criteria are expanded by default on opening a data view, so that all criteria are visible, or collapsed by default, so only the headings are visible.

With filter groups collapsed by default, you can more easily scan the available filter categories and drill down to find the right filters with less scrolling up and down in the search panel.
