Hello,
Where can I find the settings to change the gap ratio to numbers in microstation v8i ss3 version 08.11.09.587.and windows 10 when measuring the area using the flood option.
Appreciate your help.

Hi Steve,

There is no "gap ratio" settings, only "gap" in a meaning of distance (gap size).
As Andrew Bell wrote, the format, how values are displayed, is defined by working units settings.

It would be nice to share an example of geometry where the measuring does not work. It's not clear how you working units are set, but 0.00012 of sub unit looks like under standard resolution setting, so probably no gap is accepted.
Please, do not use docx to share images. To open untrusted docx files is generally dangerous (because can be malicious). Why to not attach to the post jpg file directly?
With regards,

I found the max gap on flood fill create region seemed to work better in v8i than in Connect 13 ... but it might just be my data..
example would be I have 0.02m actual gap in a line ie they are not joined or single line, in V8i I would set the max gap trial and error a few times and it would literally jump the gap and create a closed element fill.. but in connect this is not working for me no matter what number I set.. I just have to go find gaps when it wont fill.. I suppose I should use data clean up flag gaps but the source file is a ref file and i want to create coloured filled shapes in the active file.....anybody else found this or figured it out? My quick fix is to make smart line criss cross over several places in my line work then try and flood file in between until I find the little portion that refuses to fill ie enclosed.. ( by the way arcs in complex lines are particularly sensitive to this not working in Connect 13 for me..

There are a number of tools that, as related in this Forum, don't work quite the same way in CONNECT as they did in V8i. Can you isolate a problem set of boundary lines & curves and attach that DGN here? That way, the analysts have something to work with.
