[Qgis-developer] qgis 1.5.0 trunk : bug ? measure tools always return degrees

[Otto Dassau]

Hi,

only have a qgis 1.4 open, but you probably have to define the layer units
and measurement units here:

a) settings => project properties => general => layer units
b) settings => options => map tools => measure tools

Regards,
 Otto
