    i don't have the answer for your question but me i have one for you! How did you seperate your pipe size in the BOM

     

    I always have label #1 for every pipe nominal size and grouped in item #1 in BOM. I tried different description and it always group it in item #1 with 2 description side by side....

     

    HELP ME PLEASE!!! :smileyhappy:

    Open IsoConfig.xml of your style format, and search the following lines, change scale in the las line from 0,001 to 1:

     

    Precision: (string); Options include Precision<N> where N is in the range of 1 to 9.
    -->
    <!-- 'Prefix': (string); The prefix that will be added to the formatted measurement. -->
    <!-- 'Suffix': (string); The suffix that will be appended to the formatted measurement. -->
    <!-- 'Scale': (double); The scale factor that will apply to the measurement. e.g. 0.001. -->
    <!-- 'Decimal': (string); The decimal separator. e.g. '.', ',' or ' '. -->
    <Style Name="Imperial" UnitFormat="Architectural" Precision="Precision5" Prefix="" Suffix="" Scale="1" Decimal="." />
    <Style Name="ImperialSize" UnitFormat="Fractional" Precision="Precision5" Prefix="" Suffix="&quot;" Scale="1" Decimal="." />
    <Style Name="ImperialPipeLength" UnitFormat="Architectural" Precision="Precision5" Prefix="" Suffix="" Scale="1" Decimal="." />
    <Style Name="ImperialPipeLengthAlt" UnitFormat="Architectural" Precision="Precision1" Prefix="" Suffix="" Scale="1" Decimal="." />
    <Style Name="Metric" UnitFormat="Decimal" Precision="Precision1" Prefix="" Suffix="" Scale="1" Decimal="." />
    <Style Name="MetricSize" UnitFormat="Decimal" Precision="Precision1" Prefix="" Suffix="" Scale="1" Decimal="." />
    <Style Name="MetricPipeLength" UnitFormat="Decimal" Precision="Precision1" Prefix="" Suffix="mm" Scale="1" Decimal="." />
    <Style Name="MetricPipeLengthAlt" UnitFormat="Decimal" Precision="Precision2" Prefix="" Suffix="M" Scale="0.001" Decimal="." />
    </Styles>
