Description
### Is there an existing issue for this?
- [x] I have searched the existing issues
### Problem description
I have created a 3D geometry using [m] as the unit of measurement. I have generated a FE mesh, using both Gmsh and Netgen. When exporting the mesh, the node coordinates appear to be in [mm]. Changing the project system of units does not appear to affect the exported file coordinates.
Ideally, the exported coordinate units should match the ones used in the project in order to avoid having to convert them later.
Thanks!
