Zone square footage precision

Anonymous — Thu, 06 Sep 2007 23:44:24 GMT

I really don't want the square footage beyond a whole number to show on my stamp. How can I turn off the decimal point and beyond?
I thought it would be under project preferences, but that didn't work.
Thanks for your help!

Have you tried Project Preferences / Dimensions/Area Calculations. You can then turn the decimals setting to 0 and it should fix it.

I did do that and it didn't work-which doesn't make sense to me.
Any other thoughts?

Thanks for the reply:)

Are you clicking on the very last dimension style in the list? Also if you are using your View Map to switch between drawings then remember the Dimension Style is saved to the View. You will need to create a new Dimension Style with the correct Area Calculation settings and apply it to the View Setting.

Actually, I wasn't looking at dims styles at all. But you are correct. We changed the setting there & it worked.
