Draw a line and look at its line width.
I have set the unit to centimeter and in Tools>Options. And in Format > Line
the line width is shown in unit cm, but in the sidebar the line width is in
unit pt.
I use AOO400m1(Build:9700) - Rev. 1478648

--- Comment #3 from Armin Le Grand <Ar...@me.com> ---
ALG: Checked with Word and PPT, both work in cm for UI unit, but line width
(and some other stuff) is always offered in pt, that may be the reason it was
designed that way in Symphony. For AOO4.0 let's just keep it that way and see
how it is accepted and what reactions we get from people using it. Let's set to
enhancement.
I for myself would simply use the UI unit, the same as is used and shown in the
pos/spze dialog and the LineWidth field in the LineAndFilling toolbar, though.

Unit pt might be acceptable in Writer, but for Draw I see no sense in unit pt
for line width, when all other drawings are in metric units.
For Germany the DIN 15 should be considered, which has the line width in mm.
Find a copy at http://www.normalfall.com/index-Dateien/linien_schraffuren.pdf.
I don't know whether a similar ISO exists.

ALG: Yes, I have seen that, too, but it's purpose in this case to show the
LineWidth in points. There is even some effort done in that popup/control
combination to do so, the intention is (AFAIK) that 'professional' users are
used to define LineWith in Pt. Maybe some experienced users of office programs
and similar tools could give a comment here.
