Center of Gravity (again)

So I had hoped this would have been fixed.  This was an issue with 2017.  A very annoying issue.

Basically COG for a part wants to show up.  And can't be turned off.

Which makes looking at assemblies difficult.

PNG 1 shows a sub-assembly with the part.

PNG 3 shows me clicked into the part to show that COG is off.

ipt is the file.  insert into any assembly and that part always has cog turned on.  An inaccurate COG might i add.

And so when that assembly gets inserted into another assembly and so on.  In the master view i have a giant COG that can neither be turned off, or, for those of us with COD, ignored.

And yes i have tried turning the COG on and off and on and off and on and off.  And restarting inventor and restarting my PC.  I can re-create from a new file the part and it will work but that is not a valid answer.

If I do a Manage>Rebuild All
and then turn off the Visibility
it does turn off.

Oops, I see the problem.

When I place the part into an assembly the COG symbol reappears.

Do you have all of the updates installed?

Nope you don't ...

However all you have to do is delete the Zebra Stress Analysis

What happens when you place the part into an assembly?

Does the COG reappear?

I do have the updates.  Unless Autodesk Desktop app is lying to me.  see attached PNG

"However all you have to do is delete the Zebra Stress Analysis "

So I clicked on Zebra.  because I did not see where the zebra analysis was.  I then found the Zebra analysis at the top of the browser tree.  I then deleted it.

So I know pasted it into an assembly.  And COG is still on.

again the problem is when you try and paste into an assembly.

Until this gets fixed or 2018 comes out there is a work around.  The (again) in my title is because I had this problem a lot in 2016, first time in 2017 and its after updating, go figure.

So if you run into this issue.   Open a new part.  Derive the part.  select all assemblies workplaces and anything else you need.  yes any face constraints will have to redone, it won't be editable from the assembly view.  But at least the COG will be gone.

My apology I posted right away you were up to date.. 

The COG came back when I placed it in a new IAM ... interesting.

I'm sure someone at AU will see this post and take your IAM and look at it
