Is there a way to display metric values instead of imperial? If not, can it please be added to the feature wishlist.

I'll definitely add it to the list. How many other people would this
be useful for? Please reply to this thread if this is a feature you'd
find useful in the M&M files.

Basically every brazilian will enjoy such an update. Especially because the translated version of the book has everything adapted to the metric system (including progression tables, movement, etc)

If you need any help on that I can provide you that info, since I own both, the original and the translated version.

How does it convert the numbers? Is it just 1m = 3.3ft, or something
more complicated, like a slightly different progression table that works
better with metric?

I would love a metric units feature. It'd stop me from having to go online all the time to find out how many kilometers, etc, my character can jump and so on.

Wizard's published something on their website about Going Metric a while back, which includes information on how the conversion was done using existing rules (eg: the Star Wars RPG).

Here's the links:
Part 1: http://www.wizards.com/default.asp?x=dnd/rg/20040316a
Part 2: http://www.wizards.com/default.asp?x=dnd/rg/20040323a
Part 3: http://www.wizards.com/default.asp?x=dnd/rg/20040330a
Part 4: http://www.wizards.com/default.asp?x=dnd/rg/20040406a

Yes, there's a different progression table. But for starters consider the following:
5 feet = 1,5 meters

I can send you the table thru e-mail if you want.
