expecting that physical value to be shown zero when we import .iam file as a derived part as surface

[Aashiq.Sirajudeen]

Hello

When we import a .ipt file as derived part as surface, it is completely imported as surface and it does not shows any physical value.

Steps to reproduce
1. Created a part file(.ipt) create a cube consider Volume of the cube is 100000
2. The same .ipt file inserted it as the derived part in another part file as a surface the physical value not taken in account it shown as zero.

When we import a .iam file as derived part as surface, then why it is not completely imported surface and it shows physical values.
We expect that physical value to be shown zero when we import .iam file as a derived part as surface.

Steps to reproduce
1. Created an assembly with two cube and consider volume of the whole assembly 200000
2. the same assembly file is imported as the derived part in a part file as a surface here in this case, it not completely imported as a surface and it shows the same physical value of the assembly

To achieve this, we have to simplify the .iam file as a part file and then we use it as derived part, the physical value not considered into account. But for the users it is double job, so it is better if we directly import .iam file as derived part so the physical value to be shown zero.

sounds good, thanks

Have the same issue here. In the past I only used part files as derived parts with surface and expected the same behaviour with assmblies. But Autodesk suprised me.
When I use derived parts with surface it shouldn`t matter if I use part or assembly files, a surface ought have a mass of zero.

So Autodesk, please provide a consistent behaviour.
