Can't seem to find the location that allows you to convert from inches to pixels, vice versa, or any other category of measurement. A pointing in the right direction will be greatly appreciated.
Thanks, Giddyup

Hi GG
Measurements can be converted on the fly by specifying the unit type. For example if the dimensions are displayed as 500px you can overwrite the value with 2.54cm or 1in and it will be converted to 96px (1 inch = 2.54 cm = 96 pixels)
The default units can be set under Utilities >> Options >> Units Tab
Tutorials: The Basics of Web Design - Tips and Tricks - Creating a Nav Bar - Video Tutorials - Stretchy Buttons - Manual Nav Bars
Look in Help > Index and search for Units, Change Default you'll get a full explanation including all the various units of measurement abbreviations and how to change your units.
If you work in Inches for some things and pixels for others, then create templates for each set of measurements.
My math-challenged method for converting between one and the other is to create an object in one size (px for example) and then copy and paste the object into a page with Inches as the unit of measurement. The size will be converted to inches or whatever the units you have set up for that page.
