Syntax
C#
public double Accuracy { get; set; }Property Value
Double
The accuracy. The default depends on the display unit.
Exceptions
Remarks
Formatted values will be rounded to the nearest multiple of
the accuracy value.
Accuracy is specified in display units, not in Revit's
internal units.
For DUT_GENERAL, the accuracy value is always 0.000001 and
cannot be set to another value. DUT_GENERAL is a special display
unit that always rounds to six decimal places and suppresses
trailing zeros, roughly equivalent to DUT_FIXED with the accuracy
set to 0.000001 and SuppressTrailingZeros set to true.
For other display units, a wide range of accuracy values may
be specified. All values from 1.0e-12 to 1.0e12 will be accepted,
but the specified value will be automatically adjusted to the
nearest supported value if necessary. For best results, the
accuracy value should be chosen to be compatible with the display
unit:
- For most display units, the value is displayed as a decimal
number, and the accuracy should typically be a power of 10, for
example 1.0 to round to 0 decimal places or 0.001 to round to 3
decimal places. Other values can be used, for example 0.25 to
round to the nearest 0.25 (displayed with 2 decimal places) or
2.0 to round to the nearest even integer (displayed with 0 decimal
places). The specified accuracy will automatically be rounded to
the nearest positive multiple of 1.0e-12.
- For DUT_FRACTIONAL_INCHES, DUT_RISE_OVER_INCHES, and
DUT_RISE_OVER_120_INCHES, the accuracy should typically be a power
of 2, for example 0.25 to round to the nearest 1/4". Other values
can be used, for example 6.0 to round to the nearest 6" or 1.5 to
round to the nearest 1 1/2". For DUT_FEET_FRACTIONAL_INCHES,
DUT_RISE_OVER_FOOT, and DUT_RISE_OVER_10_FEET, similar accuracy
values can be used but they must be divided by 12 because the
accuracy is specified in feet. The specified accuracy will
automatically be rounded to the nearest positive multiple of
1/2^20 inches.
- For DUT_DEGREES_AND_MINUTES, the accuracy should typically
be a power of 10 divided by 3600 to round seconds to a specific
number of decimal places, for example 1.0 / 3600.0 to round seconds
to 0 decimal places or 0.01 / 3600.0 to round seconds to 2 decimal
places. The specified accuracy will automatically be rounded to
the nearest positive multiple of 1.0e-8 seconds.
