Quote - P node units are 1/10th of an inch, always. This means, that if you're at X inches from the origin, the value is 10X.

You are therefore correct that using a factor of .1 scales that to an inch.

You are not correct to say the p-node works in PNU. You might have thought this by A) rounding PNU = 103.2 inches to 100 inches and B) getting the 10X in the wrong direction.

I have carefully measured it - with coefficients set to 1, the P node gives values of 10 * number of inches.

Because I live and die by the material room, my PDU is inches. See my signature.

Oh thank you, BB, I somehow remembered a factor of 0.1 to work in inches, but could not figure out where I had seen it or how it needed to be calculated.

So it's great to know that those who work in inches can change the y-factor in the p-node to 0.1, and they should then be able to adjust the constraints in inches, which meets their environment in setting up the scene.
