Zone area calculations

[Anonymous]

Talkers,

I want to have the area show up on the zone stamp, but not with decimal feet, just feet. I have changed the area calculation preference to have no decimal places but that didn't do the trick. I looked at the zone library part but could not find anything I could tweak. Any ideas?

TIA

Brian,

I am not sure how familiar you are with GDL programming but you can format any value to predefined template in a GDL script. Go to the GDL manual and look up a description for STR{2} command. That does what you are after.

Your display is set in under
Options>Project Preferences>Dimensions
Select the area button (circled) and set the Decimals to '0'.
You can make a 'dimension profile' for the layer combination where zone areas are displayed in your zone stamp.

Making this 'dimension profile' is important because this setting showing no decimals will apply to all areas displayed while this 'dimension profile' is active.
