Units on Expressions page not supported?

[Roy_043]

I am trying out some of the units mentioned on the Expressions page in the Wiki.
Some of them are not recognized in a spreadsheet, f.e. ml and Hz.
Is the implementation incomplete or am I missing something.

I recall seeing a commit where some new units were added. Perhaps something additional needs to be done for them to work in spreadsheets. Or this might be unrelated.

Perhaps something additional needs to be done

Looking around in the code a bit I think (guess) that only the units in src/App/lex.ExpressionParser.c work. In other files more units are mentioned which may have confused the author of the Units paragraph.

@Shalmeneser Thanks for checking and the file. I'll use it when I clean up the Wiki page.

Some things are strange about the available units:

Recognized:
A (Ampere)
VA (VoltAmpere)
VAs (VoltAmpereSecond = Joule)

Not recognized:
V (Volt)
