Remarks

The UnitAbbreviation member resets to the appropriate value whenever the MeasurementUnit property changes. To use a custom abbreviation, set the value of this property after setting the MeasurementUnit property. To get the default abbreviation string, call the AnnUnitConverter.GetUnitAbbreviation method. This property is used only if the ShowLength property is true.
