Seen on a T-shirt
In a post a few weeks ago, I was asked "How do you show the total mass on a drawing?"
I made some suggestions in the comments, but during a busy weekend, I decided to whip up this quick video tip.
In short, create a text field, and insert the Mass property from your assembly onto your drawing. You'll have the property and it will update when the assembly is updated.

So once again, here's a video to show the steps in all their glory!
Seriously.. God I feel dumb thats so easy. I laughed at myself for about a minute after watching this video.
ReplyDeleteDreamCharger. I'm glad this answered your question!
ReplyDeleteI think we've all gotten "target fixation" where we looked so long in one area, we didn't think to look in another (I speak from experience on that one!)
Good work Jonathan,
ReplyDeleteNow if I can figure out how to "incorporate" this into my parts list like our LISP routine does in AutoCad, I'll be a hero.
All I get is, ..."well we can do this in AutoCad, why can't we do it in Inventor?" from the non-believers here at our company.

Haha same exact thing here at our company Mike!
