Mass Properties for parts and assemblies

[aseng]

I initially entered a few overrides for mass on some parts that I have included in a large assembly. However I now want the calculated values of mass to be used and not the overridden values. I go to the part file, erase my value, and click update and it now shows the calculated mass for that part. However in the assembly it still shows the initial overridden value even though I have tried updating it. Has anyone seen this problem before? How do I use the calculated mass values in my assembly?

Thanks

If there are any parts with overridden values the assembly will show the overridden hand icon.

If the assembly itself is overridden then it will show the icon.

You need to reset all overrides to achieve true calculated values.

If it hasn't been overridden, the assembly should still calculate the parts below but will use any part overrides as values.
