GAL tools do not perform any unit conversion. They work with the
internal units, whatever they are, by calling Get/SetPosition() methods.
I doubt there are other hardcoded conversions in the GAL code.
The problem with the hardcoded scaling you see in the patch (and as a
matter of fact, in the orig

eeschema uses mils, which are exactly 25400 nanometers, eeschema can be
losslessly converted to nanometers. Another advantage of using nm in
eeschema would be that it would be possible to use round metric quantities
(right now it's impossible and confusing as numbers are rounded to the
nearest mil)

Hi John, JP,
I will take a look at how this would work with GerbView, hopefully later
today.
There is no worksheet item in GerbView, so we might want a more abstract
idea of what the "default view" should be.
For the units question, for sure this needs to be resolved, I don't have
suggestions yet

Hi JP,
Thank for checking this. Internal units always confuse me, since
they're always different and nothing in common can ever use anything
to do with IUs, as they're only defined in some end executables.
How should this be done correctly?
Cheers,
John

Hi,
Here's a small patch to add a bounding box method to the worksheet
item, and use it to enable zoom to full sheet when the canvas is
empty.
It's a rare thing to have an empty canvas, but it does annoy me when
testing things on a blank slate, as the current behaviour is a bit
wierd (zoom to bot
