Hi,

As Barry said, the schedule uses the "Calculation Units" not the dimension preferences. Change your units here for the schedules:

But this way, the sum of areas will still be based on the whole number, regardless of the rounding applied. To get around that, you can create an expression defined property, that would take the area, and turn it into a rounded number.

The rounding is only for dimensions and it seems you zone stamp/label is using the dimension preferences.

 

Schedules us 'calculation units' and there is no rounding there.

All you can do is reduce the decimal accuracy to force rounding.

But you will not see 2 decimal places any more, just 1.
