1 | Standard Unit Suffixes for Property names |
2 | ||
3 | Properties which have a unit of measure are recommended to have a unit | |
4 | suffix appended to the property name. The list below contains the | |
5 | recommended suffixes. Other variations exist in bindings, but should not | |
6 | be used in new bindings or added here. The inconsistency in the unit | |
7 | prefixes is due to selecting the most commonly used variants. | |
8 | ||
9 | It is also recommended to use the units listed here and not add additional | |
10 | unit prefixes. | |
