Property Units in Autotext Label

fuzzytnth3 · ‎2021-02-17

Hi

I have made three Properties

1 "LintolOpening" Expression Length "Nominal W/D Opening Width on the Reveal Side"
2 "Lintol" Value "True/False"
3 "Lintol Calc" Expression Length "LintolOpening + 300 mm"

That all works fine even in a Schedule the calculated length of the Lintol is displayed nicely in "mm". However my problem is in an Autotext Label it is displayed as for example with a 1410mm long lintol it is showing as 1.4m

Anyone know how to get my Labels to display it in "mm"?

As you were! It was just a case of changing the Preferences for "Calculation Units". Weird as the units in the Element Schedule was displaying as "mm"

Did you get a sorted? I found changing the Preferences for "Calculation Units" to what I wanted fixed it.
