Comment 12 for bug 499942

fix confirmed with Inkscape 0.47+devel r9462 on OS X 10.5.8

Thank you for your expeditious response! Can I ask you a related question? The values stored for the four margins appear to be unit-less and are not recalculated when the user changes the units for the document custom size in the same widget (which is not related to the document's 'Default units' setting at the top). Keeping the absolute value of the margins potentially leads to absurd resizing results e.g. when changing custom size units from 'px' to 'm' while leaving the margins unchanged at '20.00' (former px): a document margin of 20 meters is not exactly expected nor intended by the user IMHO. Is there a rationale behind this? AFAICS the other settings stored in 'namedview' are based on 'px' and converted if needed to the units set by the user.

Possibly related: bug #586955 “the unit for user defined document size is not refreshed if document is reopen”
