Units

I need to set the units in recap to be fractional inches. The closest is feet & inches but that is workable. The other issue is that its a dimension of 1'-11 2/4" - can we please get that fixed!?!?!?! Its simple math but we should not have fractions like that. We all went to grade school - Please see fix and please see attached!!

Hi @RJK42 ,

Thank you for bringing this up in the Autodesk forums! I see you attached picture of the fractional units where 2/4" should be simplified to 1/2" of an inch. At this time this is a known issue and it is currently under developments review for a fix. I will attest your case so they are aware you encountered this issue.

Bringing this back up because it has not been addressed in a year and a half.

New to the Autodesk ecosystem and I must say, this is rather disappointing.

Example: Instead of 2' 5" 2/8, can we just get 29 1/4" ?

Hi @bcampbell3SR6X ,

This fractional unit issue has been addressed in the latest ReCap2022 release. Please give it a try.

If you still encounter issue on the unit display, please let us know.

Thanks a lot!

I've installed the updated (2022) version and the fractions are fixed.

Would it be possible to get an option for inches & fractions?

(i.e. 37 5/8" rather than 3' 1 5/8")

Thanks for your feedback!

We will log a requirement for it and will put it in future releases.

Best,
