To Add and Remove Calculation Modifiers for Spaces

Use this procedure to attach, detach, or sort calculation modifiers for spaces.

Calculation modifiers are values and formulas that can be applied to the area and perimeter values of a space to modify them. By default, a calculation modifier is applied only to the base area and base perimeter of a space. To apply the modifier to the net, usable, and gross boundaries of a space, you need to create and apply a property set definition that includes properties for these boundaries.

  1. Select the spaces you want to attach a calculation modifier to, and double-click one of them.
    Note: This procedure can be applied to multiple spaces only when they all have the same modifiers attached in exactly the same order.
  2. On the Properties palette, expand Basic, and expand General.
  3. Click the setting for Calculation modifiers.
  4. Attach or detach calculation modifiers:
    If you want to… Then …
    attach a calculation modifier for Available, select the desired calculation modifier, and click .
    detach a calculation modifier for Name, select the desired calculation modifier, and click .
    rearrange the order of attached calculation modifiers for Name, select the calculation modifier you want to move to a different position. Click to move the calculation modifier up in the list, or click to move the calculation modifier down in the list.
    Note: Calculation modifiers are processed in the same top-down order in which they are listed on this worksheet.
  5. Click OK.
