fromMm
Converts a number from mm to the current default unit.
No matter what units the current file uses, this function will always return a number equivalent to the input in millimeters.
For example, if the current file uses inches, fromMm(1) will return 1/25.4. If the current file uses millimeters, fromMm(1) will return 1.
Caution: This function is only intended to be used when you absolutely MUST have different units in your code than the file settings. Otherwise, it is a bad pattern to use this function.
We merely provide these functions for convenience and readability, as fromMm(10) is more readable that your intent is "I want 10 millimeters" than 10 * (1/25.4), if the file settings are in inches.
