Saving document presets always changes back to pica units
When creating and saving new document presets, despite choosing a different unit such as inches or points, after hitting the save button, the document preset is only saved in picas unit measurement

Thank you for reporting this issue. We’re reviewing this.

This is frustrating - the whole point of presets is that once you go to the effort to set them up, they work out of the box. I'm having this same issue now.

This has been a problem since 2017! And this issue has yet to be resolved in July of 2021. Very poor development on Adobe's part.

Another person here with this problem. It's since updating to InDesign 2020.
I have to change my preference to mm every time I fire up the computer (which is everyday)
It also doesn't keep my saved templates.
I've tried deleting preference files and all of the things on the internet, with no luck -

Same problem since updating to InDesign 2020.
Changing units or creating new presets doesn't work. Very annoying! -

I have same problem. Units & Increments reverts back to picas no matter what other measurement is chosen.

In the preferences I change the units to inches and it saves. But when I open and close the program again, InDesign, Photoshop, etc., the units reverse back to picas
