Examples
1
Consider that a software application uses 1440 twips to define the height of a window.
Convert this height from twips to Chains.
Answer:
Given:
The length in twip is:
Length(Twip) = 1440
Formula:
The formula to convert length from twip to chains is:
Length(Chains) = Length(Twip) / 1140479.9995213812
Substitution:
Substitute given weight Length(Twip) = 1440 in the above formula.
Length(Chains) = 1440 / 1140479.9995213812
Length(Chains) = 0.0012626262631561
Final Answer:
Therefore, 1440 twip is equal to 0.0012626262631561 ch.
The length is 0.0012626262631561 ch, in chains.
2
Consider that a custom user interface element is sized at 720 twips.
Convert this size from twips to Chains.
Answer:
Given:
The length in twip is:
Length(Twip) = 720
Formula:
The formula to convert length from twip to chains is:
Length(Chains) = Length(Twip) / 1140479.9995213812
Substitution:
Substitute given weight Length(Twip) = 720 in the above formula.
Length(Chains) = 720 / 1140479.9995213812
Length(Chains) = 0.0006313131315781
Final Answer:
Therefore, 720 twip is equal to 0.0006313131315781 ch.
The length is 0.0006313131315781 ch, in chains.

Twip
A twip is a unit of length used in digital typography and graphic design. One twip is equivalent to 1/20 of a point or approximately 1/1440 of an inch, which is about 0.0018 inches or 0.045 mm.
The twip is defined as a very small unit of measurement, providing fine granularity for specifying small increments in digital design and layout.
Twips are used in digital typography, graphic design, and computer programming to achieve precise control over the placement and spacing of text and graphical elements. The unit allows for detailed adjustments and fine-tuning in digital documents and layouts.
Chains
A chain is a unit of length used primarily in land surveying and agriculture. One chain is equivalent to 66 feet or approximately 20.1168 meters.
The chain is defined as 66 feet, which is historically based on the length of a chain used in surveying practices and land measurement.
Chains are commonly used in land surveying for measuring distances, particularly in the United States and the United Kingdom. The unit is useful for tasks such as plotting and dividing land and has historical significance in the development of surveying techniques.
