# UNITS_CLI Command [GstarCAD 2020](Help%20System/GSTARCAD/2020/Index.md) → [Commands](Help%20System/GSTARCAD/2020/Commands/(Commands).md) → [U](Help%20System/GSTARCAD/2020/Commands/U/(U).md) The "-units" command is used to control the display format and precision of coordinates and angles. ## Command Prompts: > Report formats: (Examples) > 1\. Scientific 1.55E\+01 > 2\. Decimal 15.50 > 3\. Engineering 1'-3.50" > 4\. Architectural 1'-3 1/2" > 5\. Fractional 15 1/2 > Enter choice, 1 to 5\<2\>: If users specify the Scientific, or Decimal or Engineering format, it prompts to specify the precision: > Enter number of digits to right of decimal point(0 to 8)\<4\>: If users specify the Architectural or Fractional format, it prompts to enter denominator of minimum fraction: > Enter denominator of minimum fraction to display(1,2,4,8,16,32,64,128 or 256)\<16\>: Then prompt to enter angle format and precision: > Systems of angle measure: (Examples) > 1\. Decimal degrees 45.0000 > 2\. Degrees/minutes/seconds 45d0'0" > 3\. Grads 50.0000g > 4\. Radians 0.7854r > 5\. Surveyor's units N 45d0'0" E > Enter number of fractional places for display of angle(0 to 8)\<0\>: Then prompt to enter the direction for angle N 90d E \<N 90d E\> : > Direction for angle N 90d E: > East 3 o'clock \= N 90d E > North 12 o'clock \= N 0d W > West 9 o'clock \= S 90d W > South 6 o'clock \= S 0d E > Enter direction for angle N 90d E\< N 90d E \>: The default direction for 0 degrees is to the east quadrant, or 3 o'clock. The default direction for positive angular measurement is counterclockwise. > Measure angles clockwise?\[Yes/No\] > \<N\> ## Other versions with matching text [GstarCAD 2016](../../../2016/Commands/U/UNITS_CLI%20Command.md) · [GstarCAD 2017](../../../2017/Commands/U/UNITS_CLI%20Command.md) · [GstarCAD 2018](Help%20System/GSTARCAD/2018/Commands/U/UNITS_CLI%20Command.md) · [GstarCAD 2019](Help%20System/GSTARCAD/2019/Commands/U/UNITS_CLI%20Command.md)
