    Hi,

    to re-compute mass properties, click File > Prepare > Model Properties > change (in Mass Properties row) > Calculate (in Mass Properties dialog box).

    You need to calculate the MP from the File-Prepare material menu, then regen to update the parameter.

    This was discussed last week.

    Yes the intructions work. the bad news is that if you have parts in a family table you have to open and repeat this for each one!!!!!

    No you don't. Open the generic and add a pro_mp_mass column (or your parameter that is set to pro_mp_mass) to the FT, then verify the FT and all of the weights are updated. Checkout the generic and all instances and check them back in.
