Area Based Calculations

  1. Ok hope you can help a newbie out.

    I have a product form that allows a user to input there size in mm;

    Height (mm): 2000
    Width (mm): 2000

    Per Sq/m: 10

    what i want is to add an option (radio buttons) and instead of adding a set £ value to have it dynamic.

    for example:

    1000mmx1000mm = 1 sq/m

    each material then has a set price (per sq/m)

    so if someone inputs 2000mmx2000mm = 4 sq/m
    and selects Alluminium (which is based at £10 per sq/m)
    would give an result of £40

    at the moment i can only set a specific value of £10

    is it possible to have the value calculate for result?

    did any of that make sense? ;p

  2. You can add a number or product field to you form, and those fields support calculations. There is a checkbox which says "Enable calculation". From there you can perform your calculation using the fields which are already in the form.
