Sys.getDeviceSettings().distanceUnits == Sys.UNITS_METRIC

Why does this :

using Toybox.System as Sys;

if(Sys.getDeviceSettings().distanceUnits == Sys.UNITS_METRIC)

throw a compiler error :

Shell Version -21181Could not find symbol UNITS_METRIC.

Ah, because the DOCS are INCORRECT! It's UNIT_METRIC not UNITS_METRIC!!!!

Your documentation says

- (Object) distanceUnits
UNITS_METRIC if distance is shown in kilometers, UNITS_STATUTE if it is shown in miles.

Whereas the SDK supports

UNIT_METRIC and UNIT_STATUTE!

ARGH!

Please fix it!!!!

This has been fixed and will be available in the next release.

I hope you mean documentation has been changed and not the name of the constant?

Yes, the documentation has been corrected. We are planning to avoid breaking changes in the virtual machine moving forward, so cases like this will typically mean the documentation will be edited to match the implementation.
