Hello, as you can see in the example below here is another problem with units in smath. As a civil engineer I need to have pressure-values to be printed in [kN/m²] and smath prints results of calculations in [J/m³] by default. When I try to change the unit manually, a redundant expression in the form of [m³/m³] appears and cannot be deleted. Not only that this does not look nice - this "new unit" cannot be combined with other values having been define in [kN/m²] by me. I suspect that there is a logic behind this I don't understand. So please help me if you have a clue. Thank you, Nils minimum example.sm (8kb) downloaded 19 time(s).

nothing is wrong with unit handling in this example except your misinterpretation. my guess is you copy-paste the meter cube and meter square from somewhere else. you should recheck how you handle with power for your formulas. regards minimum_1.sm (8kb) downloaded 29 time(s).

Hello overlord,
you were totally right. I was handling the power wrong... just found out that I have to press the key twice to have it correctly. Thank you for spending your precious evening time with helping a newbie out.
May the power be with you,
Nils

FBRamires, You need to set your units in I.2 to (kPa)^2 and units of I.3 to (kPa)^3. Edit: See this example example.sm (8kb) downloaded 19 time(s).Edited by user 26 January 2018 19:13:59(UTC)
