Hi

I am making a Schedules for metal flashings that i have added to my project. I have not had any problems using shared parameters to get the length of my line based families and everything is working fine.

But now comes the tricky part. I need to somehow add a parameter that would roundup my real lengths to my production lengths. f.eks i have couple flashings that are 2569mm And what i would like the schedule to show is that I have couple of 3000mm flashings.

Is anyone getting me?

I have been reading about formular but havent really found the answer so i was hoping somone here could help?

Regards

Sigurjón

I believe if you want the nearest 1000's, you add 499 and set the field to round down.  Correct?
