Measurement Tool - Save Calibration throughout the Session

Greetings,
One of the most powerful tools I chose Xodo for is the PDF Measurement Tools.
However, the way the measurement tool behaves throws me out of focus.
Problem:
1) All the PDF's in our company has a linear scale at the legend. This scale is used to calibrate the measurement (e.g. a line is drawn from 0m to the 5m mark, then do a calibrate and set it to 5m). All subsequent line tool measurements are correct!
2) However, when switching to the area/perimeter measurement tool (or any other tool for that matter), the calibration is reset and I have to do step (1) again, let alone that I cannot do it for the area measurement tool as I need a single line to do so.
Request/Solution:
Having a way to apply the calibration to all the measurement tools + all pages in the PDF. This is one of the features that are found in a competitive PDF app that makes a big difference for engineers like me.
Appreciate your feedback.
Thanks,
Ahmed
