Steps:

  1. Open any score
  2. "Format | Style... | Text Styles"
  3. On a text style of choice, toggle the "Follow staff size" button (when the box is checked, values in the "Offset" fields are in sp; when it is not checked, the values are in mm)

Expected result: the suffix of the "Offset" values toggles between sp and mm accordingly.

Actual result: the suffix always remains sp, leading to erroneous expectations about the working of these values and hiding the fact that "Follow staff size" and "Offset" are linked.

Note: I have a PR ready, which I'll push ASAP.

_Fix #296345 : "Offset" suffix for text style fixed to "sp"

In the Edit Text Style dlg box, the suffixes of "Offset" values are always "sp", but when "Follow staff size" is unchecked, the values are considered "mm"._
