MROUND measured area

Christophe Fortineau — Mon, 07 Sep 2020 09:42:35 GMT

Hello,

I wish to create a personalized property to get rounded measured area like this :
12,45m2 --> 12,5m2
12,12m2 --> 12,0m2

I tried with MROUND expression who called measured area but without success.
How do you do?

I have found I share...

1° - Transform Measured Area into an Expression which is called "SM01"
STRCALCUNIT ( Mesured Area )

2° - Transform SM01 into a number which is called "SM02"
STRTONUM ( SM01 )

3° - Round SM02
MROUND ( SM02 ; 0,5 )

Or...

MROUND ( STRTONUM ( STRCALCUNIT ( Measured Area ) ); 0,5 )

Just to make everything clear:
Do you do this with the "Measured Area" of Zones?

Yes absolutely
I do not know about "Measured Area" of other kind of element.

OK, I get it.

You could take this further, and convert it to a String to display the unit as well.
The below example converts the rounded value to 3 decimal place accuracy and adds "AR: " to its beginning, and " m2" to its end. The resulting string type Property can be displayed in both Zone Stamps and Schedules:

CONCAT ( "AR: ", STR ( MROUND ( STRTONUM ( STRCALCUNIT ( {Property:Zone/Measured Area} ) ), 0.5 ), 3 ), " m2" )
