Can Inventor display cubic yards (yd^3) in the Physical iProperties tab?

[jeffrey.s.barrero]

Good afternoon

Is it possible to select or choose a material such as concrete, and have it show its Volume in Cubic Yards; Unfortunately in the US that's the standard commercial unit of measure of this material. I know we can use formulas or equations to obtain the yd^3, but I feel it would be simpler to change the unit of measure in a existing iPropertie tab.

Any suggestions are appreciate it.

Thank you all, and wish you a great day.

Hello @jeffrey.s.barrero,

If you go to the document setting, yd is not a offcial supported unit.

Please set the unit to ft and then leverage equition "yd=ft/2" to generate a string and insert to custom property.

Hope it helps!

yd = ft / 3
