When I open up an assembly, then go into the iprop wizard, the mass is always not shown. In order to get it to show, I have to click the "refresh" button. Then it will be shown.

Even when I save the assembly and exit, when I come back, the mass props are again not shown.

I can go to the iproperties>Physical tab and it is shown there, just not in the iprop wiz dialog.

Just wondering if it is just me or if this is the way its supposed to be working. The properties are shown for a part, just doesnt seem right in an assembly.

Later

I think this is as designed but I need to check with Neil.

This is as designed. Having inventor update the mass properties of larger assemblies can be very time consuming.
