Hi everybody,
I'm trying to create a little table on my format drw where I want to show the mass property of the part...
Can anyone help me to do it ?
Thanks in advance !

Hi Vlad,
thak you very much for your prompt reply !
I've tried to do as you suggested but when I create a part with a material assigned and I create the drw it ask me to insert a mass value and it don't calculate it by itself...

I've tried also to insert the relation as you indicate in the other post "mass_lb=mp_mass("") but it gives me this message: Mass properties for this model are not calculated yet.
What can I do ?
Thanks
Gio
 
All right, I solved the problem.
The "trick" is that I forgot to regenerate the part...

just give a realtion weight = mp_mass("")


it will generate a parameter named 'weight"


in drawing table write &weight.
