Question

Pro_mp_mass

I have a model which for some reason the Pro_mp_mass isn't updating to the correct values. Whe I run a mass property calc I get the correct figure but for some reason it is not going through to the pro_mp_mass.

I also have an assembly with some assembly cuts in it which isn't going to full green in the traffic light however everything seams fine with all of the models and features.

Hi Colin,

You either need to set the option

"mass_property_calculate automatic"

or you'll need to generate a Report:

File -> Prepare -> Model Properties -> Mass Properties--Change -> Generate Report...

Ridiculously convoluted, I know.  If you don't want to have calculation set to automatic (can slow down regen of large models and assemblies) then it's worth writing a mapkey for the 'report' - ours is MP.
