Does this do what you need?

 

0.5 mm * round ( d0 / 0.5 mm )

 

(or whatever you want where d0 is)

Hi! I assume the dimension style you are referring to is in Drawing, right? On R2011, you can set the default dimension style to Fractional and make precision to 1/2. It should do exactly what you want.

Let me know if it works for you.

Thanks!

Yes is in drawing mode

 

Thank for you reply

 

but this options works only when you use inch  not mm

 

so i wnat smaller round options

 

my dimension area is 0,5  not 1 mm

 

i create big industri building with parameter

there bult hole create automatic

 

many time is hits like dimension  1000.32 then i want it too round too 1000.5 in the drawing not 1000.0

if it hits 1000.24 i want it too do 1000 

 

this options works in Autocad dimension  not Inventor dimension

 

next realese i hope it works

 

is there any web site for wishlist

I for one vote against this option. In the past I used to get burned by this option in AutoCAD when people would use this as a shortcut to designing precisely. My question would be, if you want 1000.5 why would you have drawn it to be 1000.32?

I suppose that in your industry a round off option is a legitimate tool. But I would hope for an option to block users from using it as a shortcut in more precise mechanical applications. You can imagine the problems a round off might create when parts are created via CNC. Such a setting could create very costly mistakes, very easily.

Yes its right

 

I know i not the fan off round off options too 

my princip is too  create dimension thats exactly

 

but if i use only zero decimal

its round off either  100.49 too 100

100,51 and 101

 

but if they build this in cold  -20 celsius

they need only 0,5 tolerans  too geet it right
