Hi fellas!
I wonder if anyone here knows it's somehow to convert widths to a module width, how would that formula look if possible?
For example:
Width
890 - 910 converts to 9M
990 - 1010 converts to 10M
1090 - 1110 converts to 11M and so on.
Would be neat!
Thanks in advance

If I understand correctly, you want to convert 890 to 910 mm to 9 meter. Is the concern the capital M? If you plan to use this parameter in a schedule or a tag, then the display of the capital M is a non issue.
Not exactly. Not meter, but we want to call something with the measuremt 890 to 910 -> 9M (not meter).
How can I set up a parameter for this conversion?
I need this for doors, where everytime the width is between 890 mm to 910 mm it should say 9M instead of the measurement.
It's a standardised way of door measurements here.
Where should it say it? In the schedule somewhere? In a tag? In a dimension string?

Both in a tag and in a schedule would be really neat.

It's possible. I have done it to identify modular casework. Before getting into creating a formula, what if a door is 850, for example?

Good question. We usually keep it between 890 - 910 because it's standardised here.
But It could be good to have a larger margin, maybe 870 - 930 or whatever.
Nice! Oh, looks so simple now! Will try it out, thanks for a nice walkthrough.
Question: Whats the purpose of "Empty field"? ![]()

I originally created a field to enter the letter 'M' and combined it with DoorW so the column would read 9M. Then I realized when combine the fields, Revit allows to add a Suffix, so I added 'M' directly as a Suffix of DoorW. But the Empty field must be there, though empty, because a combine field must have a minimum of 2 fields.
So, if you have different letters for different door type, make a Type parameter and combine it in the same manner, then you can have things like 9M, 10N, 11L, etc.
