-
- Features:
- ---------
-
- * Uses Mui! (All backdrops, fonts and so on are changeable)
-
- * Simple and compact user interface.
-
- * Units can be combined!
- E.g. you have 'Km/s' in the current unit field, you select the '*' button
- and the 'Kg/h' unit and you get 'Kg*Km/(s*h)' you can then convert that
- into Newtons!
-
- * Units' name are editable! Write 'Kg^2/(m/s)/GJ' in the field and you can use it
- at once!
-
- * No need to use a calculator to do calculations: everywhere you can put a value you
- can also put an expression that is then automatically replaced by it's value.
-
- * Easily add, substract, multiply or divide units:
- (Adding two °C to twenty °F can now be done in few clicks..)
-
- * Calculate the inverse of a unit. If you have 2 m/s^2 Convertor will give you
- 0.5 s^2/m.
-
- * Temperature handling. If Convertor can't guess if the temperature you gave
- him are Levels (0°C is 273.15 K) or Differences (When the temperature raises
- of 9°F, it is like if it raises of 5 °C), you can set it.
-
- * Convertor can say you how to convert from a unit to another
- e.g. if you have °C in the current Unit field and °F in the other, Convertor
- will give you: 'multiply by 1.8 and add 32'
-
- * Converting a unit into the SI equivalent. e.g if you have 38 calories,
- Convertor will give you 159.0984 Kg*m^2/s^2
-
- * Easy Unit creation: Drag a Unit field into a list, and a new composed unit
- is added to that list. You want to create a new base unit? Drag a Value field
- into a list and a new base unit is created! (E.g. write 48 in a Value field and
- 'yd/h' in its Unit field and drag this unit into a list, the program asks you
- the name and it's finished, you have a new unit equal to 48 yd/h!)
-
- * Undo/Redo functions: you can e.g. look the SI equivalent of a unit, and then
- undo to revert back to the original unit.
- The number of available step can be set using ToolTypes.
-
- * You can load/save UnitData files on disk (Registered version only, Convertor
- is Giftware).
-
- * Locale support
- Available catalogs (but the guide is english only):
- - English
- - Français
- - Polski
