1) Can I switch default units to kN-m (when I'll open Etabs the units we'll be kN-m)?
2) Can I change decimal places on diplay?

I am not the program permits you to change the default units when opening the program. You might try saving an EDB file named DEFAULT in the program directory with the desired base units -- it will use this when you create a new file and choose "Default".

You can change the decimal places displayed by choosing Options -> Preferences -> Output Decimals. These settings do not work everywhere, but should affect the display of most results.
