does it measure in decimals? for instance, NOT 10 ft 6 inches but 11.3 ft?

Yes it can be switched to that mode (unlike its sister model the GLM165-10 !)

Does it only measure in inches?

Thank you for your question. The GLM165-40 Laser Measurer measures in standard and metric units. You can choose from inches, meter, ft or ft/inches. For further assistance, contact us at 1-877-BOSCH99 (1-877-267-2499) from Mon-Fri 7A-7P CST.

The rear of the tool is the reference for measuring, can it be changed to the front of the tool?

For GLM165-40 the rear edge of the measuring tool is always the reference point for the measurement. For further assistance, contact us at 1-877-BOSCH99 (1-877-267-2499) from Mon-Fri 7A-7P CST.
