Grid Size not saving on report
I have a report set to use inches with the grid size set to 0.05. I'm using version 2019.3.5 of your designer, and every time I open the report the grid size is reset to the default value of 0.1. It's easy enough to set it back every time, but it is a bit of a hassle.
I took a look at my Stimulsoft.Report.settings file, and I can see that the "GridSizeInch" item is set to 0.05 when I set the setting. It doesn't get changed back to 0.1 unless I close the designer, reopen it, and then open my report.

Re: Grid Size not saving on report
Hello, Ryan.
You get the issue because the Report Unit property by default is set to Centimeters.
I will check if it's possible to change this behavior.
Thank you.

Hello, Ryan.
What Report Unit is set for the report?
Please, check that it is set to inches.
In the Designer you could set the grid for different report units.
But the report unit is set in the report.
Thank you.

Re: Grid Size not saving on report
The Report Unit is set to inches, and stays set to inches if I close and reopen the report. The issue I'm having is with the Grid Size setting of the designer. Every time I launch the designer, the first time I open a report all of my Grid Size settings are being reset to the default values.
So, if I open the designer and fix the setting to what I want (In this case 0.05), I see this line in my Stimulsoft.Report.settings file:
<Item Key="GridSizeInch" Value="0.05" Type="System.Double" />
If I then close and reopen the designer, and open any report, the setting changes to this:
<Item Key="GridSizeInch" Value="0.1" Type="System.Double" />
I'd like the setting to keep the value I set it to.

Re: Grid Size not saving on report
The one installed from this page on your site: https://www.stimulsoft.com/en/downloads/reports
I used the 'Download for Windows' link. The version I installed was older (My initial install was version 2019.3.3) but I have downloaded every update since using the update feature of the designer.
Here's the about box, if that helps:

Re: Grid Size not saving on report
I removed all of the files in that folder. The designer recreated all of them, and my issue is still present. I played with some of the other settings, and it seems like this might not only be an issue with the grid settings. I also tried disabling rulers and enabling auto-save. Both settings were changed back to default after restarting the designer and opening a report. But I also set the "Who are you?" setting to "I'm Developer" and that setting seems to have stayed set, so it's not all settings that are being reverted.
