I created a plane and set its dimensions to 32m x 4.5m. When using the edge length measurement tool, it shows 1m for every edge in the viewport.
Q: Why it doesn't display 32m x 4.5m in the viewport?

2$\begingroup$ This is due to the scale given in object mode. Apply scale Ctrl+A in object mode. $\endgroup$ – lemon Feb 23 '20 at 14:47

1$\begingroup$ @lemon, thank you. noted. I'm sorry but i don't understand the logic betwen the extra step...Kindly advice. Is there any way to automatically make the edge follow the dimension by default? $\endgroup$ – Ranvier Lee Feb 23 '20 at 14:51
