    Hi Andrea,<br>
    <br>
    I'm the author of the commits that add a 'units' attribute to
    StyleLayerDescriptor element.<br>
<a class="moz-txt-link-freetext" href="https://github.com/qgis/QGIS/commit/b54b1598a6ba145a51aa266cde9282ae4d0378ad">https://github.com/qgis/QGIS/commit/b54b1598a6ba145a51aa266cde9282ae4d0378ad</a><br>
<a class="moz-txt-link-freetext" href="https://github.com/qgis/QGIS/commit/f7ce8b94344e7a7dd12fac2a90bd84df30b7e82f">https://github.com/qgis/QGIS/commit/f7ce8b94344e7a7dd12fac2a90bd84df30b7e82f</a><br>
    <br>
    If you look at the code of these 2 commits, I didn't change anything
    about QGIS SLD interpretation. In the QGIS core, a 'units' attribute
    is used to defined the SLD default units for distance.<br>
    But I didn't add this 'units' attribute for QGIS and QGIS Server SLD
    interpretation, I add these 'units' for GeoServer.<br>
    <br>
    I didn't used uomScale because of SLD has to be used for any DPI
    screen. So if a QGIS user made style in pixels, he has made the
    choice to have different rendering in different DPI screen. But if
    the user made style in mm on the screen, the stroke or line has to
    have the same size in different DPI screen.<br>
    <br>
    Can QGIS extend SLD by added it's own schema for defining units
    attribute ?<br>
    <br>
    Can we used a VendorOption, to specify mm on the screen like in
    GeoServer ?<br>

    <br>
    About uom in Symbolizer, I think QGIS has to add it like GeoServer

            <div>[BUGFIX] Set default units to mm in exportSld</div>
            <div><br>
            </div>
            <div>The default units in QgsMapRenderer is Millimeters. The
              default units in SLD</div>

            </div>
            <div>To resolve it, we just have to add units to the

          </div>
          <div>---------------------</div>
          <div><br>
          </div>
          <div>The above comments seems to suggest something is actually
            using that attribute, but I'm not sure what.</div>
          <div><br>
          </div>
          <div>Mind, GeoServer can parse the file the same, but if users
            try to validate it (there is a validation button in the
            style editor), they will get the following error:</div>
          <div><br>
          </div>
          <div>"ine 2: cvc-complex-type.3.2.2: Attribute 'units' is not
            allowed to appear in element 'StyledLayerDescriptor'."</div>
          <div><br>
          </div>
          <div>Also, the attribute per se does nothing in a compliant
            client, since SLD 1.1 lacks the very concept of "on screen
            unit", the uom allowed</div>
          <div>are pixel (on screen), meter (on ground), feet (on
            ground).</div>
          <div>A SLD export trying to be compliant should convert mm to
            pixels assuming some DPI conversion factor (which means,</div>
          <div>making many changes around... bummer). I see there is
            already a uomScale in the conversion properties, but I see
            it's not</div>
          <div>used for point symbol sizes (as the commit message says..
            I actually don't see it being used anywhere).</div>
          <div><br>
          </div>
          <div>Would it be ok to remove that attribute and use uomScale
            to properly adapt sizes from mm to px instead?</div>
          <div><br>
