Equation Syntax Needed

Equation Syntax Needed

Equation Syntax Needed

(OP)
Is there a list (other than the help file) of commands for equations?
I need to convert and answer I’m getting from feet/inches to just inches.
I’m dividing a referenced dimension, which comes in feet/inches, and need a unit-less answer.

RE: Equation Syntax Needed

A possible simple workaround;

Create a second reference dimension and set its units to inches, then use it to propagate the equation. The second dimension can be deselected as Mark For Drawing.
