Hello all!
Have a Great of new year?
When i performing project, always need to calculate Feet to meter.
because *Need to fix meter unit of master Model(Owner don't want to change to feet)
So When i drawing line in Microstation distance(Inset 3.28 feet), is it possible to Automatically convert to 1Meter?

Why not change the working units setting from/to feet/ meters, do your work in the units of your choice and then change it back again before returning the file to Owner? Microstation automatically converts units on the fly.
Great Idea but he usually want to check beside of me.
Max is correct. What you could do is create a dimension style which displays lengths in metre’s, or both feet and metre’s, one length above, another below.
Ah, tricky! That was one of the advantages of Covid lockdown - being able to work in isolation without over-the-shoulder surveillance.

FWIW we designed AreaAnnotator to show dual metrics...

If this guy wants to stand over your shoulder, then he can stand there while you put distances into Accudraw as XX*0.3048. Accudraw will do that calculation for you, at least.He can let you do your job efficiently, or he can waste his time watching you do it his way.
I'm not even 100% sure of why he wants you do do what you're doing this way.When I've worked on "mixed unit" projects, I have meter drawings and I have feet drawings. I draw meter things in the meter drawing and feet things in the feet drawings. Then I create an empty container file in whatever unit is going to control (what they actually want the plans in) and reference everything in there with the "True Scale" setting.
