UnitFormattingSettingsProvider Interface

The UnitFormattingSettingsProvider interface is used to store and retrieve override FormatProps and Presentation Unit System for use by the QuantityFormatter. If no UnitFormattingSettingsProvider is supplied to the QuantityFormatter then any overrides set are lost when the session is closed. The ui-test-app has and example implementation that uses browser local storage via the class LocalUnitFormatProvider here.
