I've attached&nbsp; a picture where it is in square feet (see the red arrow). I was wondering if there is an easy way to change the units to something else like acres. I know that you can use the measuring tool, but it would be nice if you can get the area in the units you want by just creating the polygon.</SPAN><BR /><BR /><SPAN>Thanks!</SPAN></BODY></HTML> Tue, 27 May 2014 15:31:23 GMT https://community.esri.com/t5/arcgis-collector-questions/changing-the-default-units-for-calculating-area/m-p/277456#M4815 CindyRendl 2014-05-27T15:31:23Z Re: Changing the default units for calculating area https://community.esri.com/t5/arcgis-collector-questions/changing-the-default-units-for-calculating-area/m-p/277457#M4816 <HTML><HEAD></HEAD><BODY><P><SPAN style="color: #222222; font-family: Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif; font-size: 12px; background-color: #fbfbfb;">Tap the measure results to open the units' drop-down list and select the units you want displayed to view the measurement in different units. <IMG alt="Collector_Measure_acres.png" class="image-1 jive-image" src="https://community.esri.com/legacyfs/online/78573_Collector_Measure_acres.png" style="height: auto;" /></SPAN></P><P></P><P>documented in Help here, <A href="http://doc.arcgis.com/en/collector/android/collect-data/guided-tour.htm" title="http://doc.arcgis.com/en/collector/android/collect-data/guided-tour.htm">Guided tour—Collector for ArcGIS | ArcGIS</A>&nbsp; </P></BODY></HTML> Wed, 25 Mar 2015 13:13:15 GMT https://community.esri.com/t5/arcgis-collector-questions/changing-the-default-units-for-calculating-area/m-p/277457#M4816 DeniseKing 2015-03-25T13:13:15Z
