Background
This article will explain how can we change the precision level of dimensions on the components. We will take the LENGTH property as an example on PIPE class and change precision level to 1. Currently, the level of precision is 3 as shown in the picture below:
Steps to Accomplish
- Launch class editor and load OpenPlant_3D schema.
- Right click on OpenPlant_3D schema and select Supplement Schema option.
- Add OpenPlant_3D_Supplemental_ModelingViews schema and click OK.
- Search for the PIPE class through search tool.
- Select the result and click Go To button.
- Locate the LENGTH property in properties tab.
- Click Override button.
- Remove the last two pounds (#) from the format string in Format Custom attribute.
Note: If you don't find this attribute on the property you want to modify, then you can add this attribute and add the string {0:0.#}. # denotes the number of digits after the decimal. - Save the changes in schema and verify the result.
Verify Result
- Open any existing file.
- Select the pipe component and open the element info dialog to check the length property.
Note - Above steps should be used & Applicable for double type property. For String type property, string should be initialized. See wiki article here>>>>.
