BOM units

[grunt58]

We show a sheet metal parts flat pattern size in our BOM description. I link it to SW-Bounding Box Width and SW-Bounding Box Length. The problem I'm having is on the drawing BOM the units come up as fractional; we want decimal. The only way I've found to force the BOM to decimal is to change the drawing document units to decimal. Which unfortunately changes all dimensions on the drawing to decimal which we don't want. The SW-Bounding Box _ property displays correctly at the part level but not on the drawing.

I think I'm SOL but any suggestions would be helpful.

Outside of manually typing it in, I think your right your SOL.
