HI team

I have a problem with ipart , I have a drafting done for a bush but it doesn't update the weight as I have provided a link in tremplate it works for all other parts except iparts

You need to generate it ... and then update mass and save it.

Or save all of the versions into an Assembly and save that dummy assembly and then it'll show up 

As shown here:

Hello @Anonymous

From your .idw printscreen it looks like you need to update the drawing.

click the update button i have circled in red, io my printscreen.

Then this will update your model.

You just need to open the iPart member file individually and go to Manage -> Update Mass and Save. N/A will go away.


Or, you can simply drop these members to a dummy assembly and then update -> Manage -> Update Mass and Save. This will take care of multiple members.

@mdavis22569 Thank you it worked , it was a one the part in my assembly , I couldn't share the whole assembly due to company policy but why doesn't it update in that assembly itself and I need to create a dummy assembly just for bush ? is that a bug with inventor or is it how the ipart works ? because it theirs more parts its just time consuming , do they solve this issue in next update ?
