Ortho Annotation Elevation Tag

[bapan_b]

I am using PLANT 3D 2014. As per my project requirement " All dimensions are in mm and Elevation are in mtr". During Ortho Annotation B.O.P Elevation Tag is showing in mm Units but I want to represent it in mtr Units in orthographic drawings.

What you should be able to do is use the PLANTDEFINECALPROPERTIES command and do some editting of the project setup.

I have recorded a video that shows how to do this.

Thank you sir for this video. Ortho annotation tag for BOP in mtr is coming properly. but is it possible to indicate upto three decimal value ie, BOP EL 12.570 M

With an INCHES to decimal FEET, using the same process, I get nothing.  And as well, I would like to limit the decimal percision.  Any suggestions?

Among other issues, i've just been tagging the elevations as decimal inches and leaving it as a non-plotting layer.

Then I'd get that number, run it through a lisp with the command "(RTOS 12345.32 4 3)"

RTOS being the native autocad command to convert, 4 being arch units, and 3 being 1/8" precision.

here are some resources.

hope this helps!

cheers,

Hello, can you show how to add a specific values to x and y coordinates, so that when I annotate the position, it would show new coordinates with added values?

Hello, the video is missing, please, could you send it or upload it again. I need to be able to annotate in meters the COP in my projects and I don't know how to do it. Thank you. best regards
