Approach tab - metric/imperial mix for DA/visibility

I have set all the settings to nautical/imperial, but still get a curious blend of the two on the Approach tab.

 

For example, the ILS 08R into KGRR, for the Cat 1 DA/vis it shows (navigraph 1905):

 

1000 / 550 m

The DA is actually 1000ft,  that's OK. The required visibility is 1/2SM.

 

For the visibility it shows 550m, not quite 1/2SM, but in any case it is confusing to have a mix of the two units.

 

Am I missing a setting somewhere, or is this bug?

Hi Orest,

 

The minima dimensions are not subject to general dimension selection. They are purely text-file driven. What you are reporting are default values, depicted with a faint amber background. You are nevertheless welcome to create your own minima file(s) for any airport of your liking.
