Good day
I there a setting to change 61.25kg to 61kg when generating weight in a Bill of Materials on an isometric drawing? I am using AutoPlant Modeler and Isometrics for AutoCad 2015.
Kind regards
Hello,
You can edit Report.def file edit weight information
COLUMN = 10: RA1 : WEIGHT
For more detail steps please refer following communities link:

Hope this helps. Looking forward to your reply.

Thanks Abitjut for responsing. Unfortunately it has not solved my problem.
In the project I have changed the report.def file (Snapshot attached). The individual weights are still indicating 2 decimal points - the total weight is rounded (Snapshot attached). I am using windows10
Pleas advise

Thank you Kestutis for responding.
However, there is five Style.cfg files on the system, do I change all of them? Also, is it neccessary for me to change the imperial accuracy as well? I use metric values.
Browsing in the style.cfg files I noticed IMPERIAL_DECIMAL formatting (see snapshot). Is it posible that I should change these values from default 2 to 0? Again do I change all 5 files?
There is no reference to weight under accuracy heading. Only dimension, diametre, coordinate and length. Will editting IE_FMT_LENGTH_ACCURACY=1 control the weight value?
Please advise
Hello again,
I have tested this situation and can confirm Abhijit's suggestion to use "COLUMN = 10: RA1 : WEIGHT" was correct answer
This line means that a 10 character column with right aligned WEIGHT value, will be accumulated with one character after comma.
If you would like to change 61.25kg to 61kg then use command with 0 value and you will get rounded weight information.
