hectares as unit type

[Anonymous]

Is is possible to set unit type to hectare whether by dimension setting under prefs or by calculation method using zones (without going into GDL programming...) ?

thanks much

I am not aware of any setting that does Hectares or Acres , but I have a converting library part that might help with some of the dimensions that Archicad doesnt have.

Randy, that looks really useful.

Be a brick and post it in the depository...(with the creator's permission)

Ok, I will post in depository...(with my permission)
simple multipling formulas , someone with more GDL
experience could improve on it to make it even more

This isn't an Archicad object but it is a really handy converter/calculator for just about anything.
It is an Excel file (zipped).
I don't know where it came from or who created it and I can't see any copyrights or restrictions for sharing it.
So here it is.

There is a unit converter for Mac that I use and find useful.
It is freeware and can be downloaded here.
