-->Call this template to convert between metric and imperial units of length. Both the original and converted length will be displayed, with the unit you supplied coming first, or only the converted length if you use the "po" parameter (see {{SectionLink||Display}}). The template can also convert a figure in inches to feet and inches. | |||
See [[Template:Temp]] for a temperature conversion template. | |||
==Supported conversions== | |||
Here are all the conversions supported by the template. If you want anything else to be supported, it's fairly easy to add new conversions: copy a line of code and simply change the unit names and the constant for converting between them. | |||

'''Dist''' also supports a special conversion from inches to feet-and-inches:<br> | |||
<tt><nowiki>{{Dist|21|in|ft}}</nowiki></tt><br> | |||
yields<br> | |||
{{Dist|21|in|ft}} | |||
==Precision== | |||
An optional "dec" parameter specifies the number of decimal places to provide in the conversion. | |||
<tt><nowiki>{{Dist|100|mi|km|dec=1}}</nowiki></tt><br> | |||
yields<br> | |||
{{Dist|100|mi|km|dec=1}} | |||

{{Dist|100| | {{Dist|100|mi|km|dec=0}} | ||
==Display== | |||
An optional "po" parameter, when set to "yes", tells the template to only print the converted product. | |||
