How big is a unit?

[golanlevin]

@tatyanade , could you kindly do some Internet research and/or some actual tests, to reckon the number of embroidery-units-per-inch (at least, for our Viking Jade 35 machine)? I don't know whether a stitch length of 50 is really long or not, and I don't know how big a circle with diameter 100 will actually appear. Maybe embroider a units ruler?

Did some tests and measured them and seems 100 is equal to 1 cmm, the Husqvarna Viking software also verified this so 10 is equal to 1 mm

This is great to know!!! @tatyanade , it looks like all of our example designs are "too small": I've made a "ruler" example, please test it out .... https://github.com/CreativeInquiry/PEmbroider/tree/master/examples/PEmbroider_ruler

Results are perfectly to scale. But, this and some tests I did yesterday raised some issues with single line embroideries - Am opening a new issue about that right now

Wow!
