expressions unit conversion in if case ( Angle / dimension )

[Robse]

Hello,

I want to make an angle A (deg) directly dependent to a dimension D (mm) with expressions.

I try to generate an angle of 17.5 degrees unless the measurement is greater than 75mm. When i type:

A = if(D<=75)(10)else(17.5)

then I get an unit error. Is there any solution to convert dimensions to a format that works with an if statement without converting it before to a different unitless expression?

Thank you and best regards

Verify the units of both D and A are in angle degrees

Hello,

thank you for your answer. Maybe i didn´t explain it properly.

The problem is D is a Diameter and the unit is mm. How do i use multiple units or is there any possibility to convert?

Best regards

In the expression system, any hard coded numbers in the formula are assumed to be in the same units as the expression. In your case, it thinks 75 is a measurement angle in degrees and throws an error when comparing a length (expression D, defined in mm) to an angle. To fix this, you need to tell it the units for the 75 number.

 if(D<=75[mm])(10)else(17.5)
