How to remove the .00mm from user desp for mds support

 

Attribute Ptype of the Parameter (DDAT) has to be "INT"

Hi,

Thanks for reply, I have tried with INT, REAL, DISTANCE, BORE but still it is same not removing.


Thanks

Check the form Text Gadget definitions, it maybe something like this;
text .foundationNo 'Foundation Number' width 12 is REAL format !!distanceFmt

Or Text Gadget value has been formatted to 2 decimal places.

Hi rhel,

Thank you very much for your reply. Could please explain in detail so that I will implement into it.

thank

Values of the decimal places are controlled by the global variables depending on its object type e.g. REAL, DIST, BORE.. & others. If you want to roundup the values to whole number, you need to modify the global variable that controls on it.
Type in the command line to update the Distance format decimal places value: System default value is set to 2 decimal place.
!!distanceFmt.dp = 0

Take note that this will affect all of the distance units settings including Measure Distance.
May I know what is your purpose or what are you trying to achieve why need to get rid of this decimal places? There's maybe other simple ways on how to do it if we may know what is it for.

 

Your request is a bit complicated, you need to modify the aveva default macro programs in order to do this. There maybe other method on how to solve this.

As for my advice, if the default values with ".00mm" does not cause any errors for the Desparam then just let it be as with the default format. Aveva has implemented this units conventions for easy migration of project units settings for example from MM to FINCH.

Hi Rhel.

I agree with your point. My client is insisting to do that since it is unitless despara.

Let us know how to proceed.

Thanks
