Planing Hull Assistant Observations and Suggestions

16072008.4 The powerboat assistant insists on using mm as the measurement... if I have used mm earlier for a drawing - even when starting a new drawing with meters as the main unit or changing mm to meters in the under Options=>Units. If I restart Rhino, and start with a meters drawing, its OK.
16072008.5 For planing hull wizard, what Transom Height is not immediately clear...
16072008.6 When entering a change in the Dimensions tab, hitting enter does not update the realtime drawing - it should. Instead you have to click in the entry field of another parameter – this is unhandy if you are trying to adjust the one parameter.
16072008.7 You need some more direct way to adjust the angle of the section at the DWL entry point - right now, as far as I can figure, there is no way to influence this shape much. Maybe you need a chine beam width and slider for its position for the forward 50% of the boat?
16072008.8 Consider adding a parameter for Chine on where it enters the water.
16072008.9 The wizards save the settings from an earlier session. If I totally messed up I have no easy way to get back to a simple hull without restarting Rhino. Either provide a 'set to Default' button, or program to reinitialize when starting a new design (this is less preferable).
