I would like to request a modification to the map measuring tools (MapWinGIS.tkCursorMode.cmMeasure). The current iteration of the tool is fantastic - one of the best design and display methods I have seen - although I would like to have even more control over the display. While our data unit is meters, our users (from North America) only deal with English units.
The unit of measure, which is currently only in map units, could have a conversion from metric to english and english to metric.
distance - meters and kilometers <--> feet and miles
area - square meters and hectares <--> square feet and acres
Also, the ability to show or hide the segment point numbers. (A nice new addition to 4.93 - but they are always displayed)
And the ability to show or hide the line segment lengths while making area measurements would be nice too.
Thank you for an excellent GIS control !

Thanks for suggestions. They are all reasonable. I'll add them to my TODO list.
