Background

There could be requirement to round up quantity in bill of material. Below are some simple steps to accomplish this necessity.

Steps to Accomplish

1. For OpenPlant Modeler - OpenPlant Isometrics Manager
   1. Launch OpenPlant Isometrics Manager. Select Project unit, say Imperial here.
   2. Click on Configuration to launch ‘Isometric Configuration’ dialog box.
      
      
      
   3. From Advanced option, click on "Explore Style"
      
      Note - From working project you can manually navigate to style.cfg file. See below default path for reference
      C:\ProgramData\Bentley\OpenPlantModeler V8i\WorkSpace\Projects\OPModeler_Imperial\DataSet\Isometrics\Styles\IFC\Config
      
      
2. For AutoPLANT Modeler - OpenPlant Isometrics Manager
   1. Open Project Administrator select the working project and click Create/Modify button
      
      
      
   2. From Advanced option, click on "Explore Style"
      
      Note - From working project you can manually navigate to style.cfg file. See below default path for reference
      C:\ProgramData\Bentley\Plant V8i\Bentley Plant V8i Projects\SAMPLE_IMPERIAL\Config\OpenPlant\Isometrics\styles\IFC\config
      
      
3. Open Style.cfg and search for ACCURACY variable
4. You will find special ACCURACY variables only for imperial units.
     #-----------------------------------------------------------------------------
     # ACCURACY (imperial only)
     #   Specifies the accuracy of a displayed imperial value
     #   Examples:
     #       = 16    no value will be displayed with a fraction smaller than 1/16"
     #-----------------------------------------------------------------------------
     IE_FMT_DIMENSION_ACCURACY  = 16
     IE_FMT_DIAMETER_ACCURACY   = 16
     IE_FMT_COORDINATE_ACCURACY = 16
     IE_FMT_LENGTH_ACCURACY     = 16
   
   
5. This is the result when ACCURACY values are set to 16
   
   
   
6. In this example user required to round up Quantity of Pipes length and we have edited length accuracy.
   IE_FMT_LENGTH_ACCURACY     = 8
