Error on Component Mass

Anonymous
Not applicable

I have a design with multiple components and all components except one provide a proper mass when i check properties of the component. The particular one which doesnt provide a correct mass gives an error of 1.147E + 04G.

 

I then created a test component to try and find out why its not showing correct mass and i started off with a smaller component ( which worked ) so i would be led to assume that its a decimal issue perhaps . The software is showing mass of my components in Grams although my user preferences are set to KG ....

 

Is there a volume limit to calculate mass that im perhaps missing? I did read about hidden components ( hence the plain test component ) so not sure what else i could be doing wrong?

Hi,

There´s no Error!  

 

2. What mass do you expect?

 

1,147E +04 = 11470 g  (scientific notation  > E+04 = 10000)

 

You can change the settings for the display in scientific notation in the preferences.
