Hello!

Your help is appreciated! (Currently using ArcGIS Pro 3.4.2)

I am looking to see if we can add Nautical Miles to the measure tool in Pro. Is there a way to customize unit of measure for this tool? 

 

For a daily work flow I have to send a few coordinate locations with nm distance from shore in emails out to field teams and collaborators that work offshore with aerial survey and boat teams.  Being able to use the measure tool and not have to take that and do a conversion would definitely save me time.

Just after posting I answered my own question! But if anyone else is looking for the solution here it is -

Project Menu, select options and select UNITS. You can customize and set defaults there.
