How do I convert a value from ANSI to ISO format within a table cell

Hi there,

I am calling out a dimension within a table cell as follows:

&rpt.rel.max [ &rpt.rel.maxmetric ]

In this case max = d100 and maxmetric = d100*25.4= 25.4

The problem is I want maxmetric to show 25.4 = 25,4 to be consistent with the ISO format.

Is there a tag that I can add to show the "." as a ","?

I hope that wasn't too confusing and thanks in advance.

I know there is a setting for making metric (SI) dims with commas, but I am not sure that is the case with equations in relations or even parameters.

Look for decimal_marker in drawing .dtl settings, not config.pro (model options).

I'll give that a try. I wonder, when using the ANSI format, the tag to limit the decimal places is [.x]. I wonder what the ISO equivalent of that tag is, and if that might produce the desired result.

It should be the same. Let us know what you come up with.
