Remarks

The UnitAbbreviation property resets to the appropriate value whenever the MeasurementUnit property changes. To use a custom abbreviation, set the value of this property after setting the value for the MeasurementUnit property. To get the default abbreviation value, call the AnnUnitConverter.GetUnitAbbreviation method. This property is used only if the ShowLength property is true.
