# Guide 3: OC Conversions

> 2 minutes

Bobyard has a lot of really powerful unit conversions to help you calculate everything from lengths to weights. We will do a few examples in this guide.

After drawing an area, you can use the details navbar to choose to convert the unit.

## OC points

Converting an area (rectangle, polygon, or circle) to counts (ea), requires an O.C. value. After typing in an O.C. value, you can see a render of the visualization of the points. The measurement in the takeoff sidebar on the right hand side also now shows 613 ea instead of an area.

## OC points for lengths

Converting a length to a count also works in the same way.

## OC lines

Converting an area to a length results in renders of lines across the shape (great for drip lines).

## OC grids

Converting an area to a \*length results in grids
