HamlinBC Posted May 31, 2016 Share Posted May 31, 2016 I'm sure just a simple search would help me out, but...I don't know...too lazy and time is of the essence. I would like to know how to do a macro that would display my interior door sizes like this: 2'-6" X 6'-8" 2'-8" X 6'-10 1/2" R.O. Is this even possible, or what am I up against here? I know I'll have to set my R.O.'s so that they're correct, so I'm assuming that there's a simple way to get the macro's to display this somewhat like I show. I might even settle for the inch dimensions instead of the feet-inch... Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Joe_Carrick Posted May 31, 2016 Share Posted May 31, 2016 Yes, it's possible. Subscribers to my "Macro a Month Club" can do this easily by using my custom ftin(denominator) method. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
HamlinBC Posted May 31, 2016 Author Share Posted May 31, 2016 What about one time macro fee?... Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
HamlinBC Posted May 31, 2016 Author Share Posted May 31, 2016 What if I just give you a hi-five Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Joe_Carrick Posted May 31, 2016 Share Posted May 31, 2016 Jonathon, $3.00 gets you my "FloatClass.rb" which allows you to simply convert any value to ft-in-fractions by simply adding .ftin(8) to the value. IOW, if width = 30.5 owner.width.ftin(8) -> 2'-6 1/2" Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
HamlinBC Posted June 1, 2016 Author Share Posted June 1, 2016 I don't know Eric...I must be too stupid. I copied and pasted what you put there and it just failed...there must be something I'm missing. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
BrownTiger Posted June 1, 2016 Share Posted June 1, 2016 I posted exact source code for the class. It does not do metric unlike Joe's. Other than that it works 100% Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
HamlinBC Posted June 1, 2016 Author Share Posted June 1, 2016 Oh...hmmm...now it works??... OK that's just plain weird because I tried it yesterday and I either couldn't select the macro, or else it would paste all of that coding in for the label. Thanks Eric!

HamlinBC Posted June 1, 2016 Author Share Posted June 1, 2016 Well I certainly appreciate it! I don't do a lot with macros, and I was more or less asking if what I wanted could be done. I was fully ready to drop the $3...not like it's a bank breaker... Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
