Calculate conversion factor

[SUNNY60]

Hi Good Morning, I dont understand how to calulate in AutoCAD the Conversion factor. I need to calculate the complete Building Floor and I try the field command in AutoCAD, But I dont know what I should write to conversion factor. Please can you tell me the conversion factor.

Hi Sunny60,

I moved your question to its own thread.

Please explain more about what you're after - what are converting from and to?

Are you calculating the area of a floor plan?

Is the drawing done in metric and you're trying to convert to imperial or vice versa?

Hi Thanks for your responed, Am working on Building and I need to calculate the area with the Field Command from AutoCAD, so I went to Field, Field Category , Objects type, Additional Format and Conversion Factor. I just want to know which conversion factor do I need to st it if want all to be calculate in Sq M for me.

Thank you

And what are you converting from?

1000000 square millimeters = 1 square meter

[SUNNY60]

The drawing is in metric

[ReMark]

That would make sense based upon your request for square meters.

I don't do metric drawings so I don't know what the normal output is. See my last post.

The Calculation look like That :- 1596398665.50

Typically, if it has not been changed, the output will be in mms, either square or cubic.
The default units for a metric (iso) template are mms.
If you move the decimal point 6 places to the left you will have converted it from square mms to square meters.
Did you draw this in 4D?

well Thank you I will use your last post to calculate the area, and once again thanks.
