tiles based on various Standard Tile Sizes (see 

“Default/

Standard Values for Materials”). 

Note:

In the calculation,

the corresponding tile size will show in the upper right of

the display. Tile sizes are labeled in millimetres, not

square millimetres (or sq. metres). In other words, a

“100mm tile” is really 100mm x 100mm or a 10,000

square-mm (0.01 sq. m) size.

Note:

Calculation does not account for grout width, so

you will need to adjust for this.

Also note that this key cannot be customized; you must
use Custom Tile Keys
