Controlling the Number of Decimal Places in Parameters
When you append certain parameter symbols with the characters "[.#]", the system displays those parameters with the number of decimal places specified by #, which is an integer. The system rounds the number, but uses the same value. This applies to the following parameters:
• User-defined model parameters or those defined in model relations
• Drawing labels, such as &scale (drawing scale) and &det_scale (detail view scale)
When adding the note that contains the parameter, append the parameter symbol with "[.#]", where # is the number of decimal spaces to appear. For example, if a detailed view scale is 1.125, and you want to display only two decimal places, change the drawing label to &det_scale[.2] (no spaces). This displays the scale note as 1.13.
To edit the scale note, select it, right-click and click Properties on the shortcut menu.
