Most of the year I would probably prefer the weather up there. My wife not so much, she is liking the absence of snow down south.
I am having a hard time with the popularity of the verticals, When I had my dairy I was more concerned about the mix.

Elmar Klammer Jan 2, 2018 1:14 PM (in response to Jim Steinmeyer)Hi Jim,
That all depends. Are you going up north, north west or north east......You'd have to stay mostly west to like the temperatures....not so sure about the whether...Pacific sunshine is mostly rainy.

I'm from the Dakotas, the heat down here in southern Kansas is killing me.
I've been in Winnipeg during the winter and it was pretty nice. Then I drove the Al-Can to Anchorage early November and came back in February. My kind of weather

I think he wants to set the assembly weight (can't set material for assemblies).

I also hate giving more chances for error because if there is a chance, I will make it. However in this case i am not sure if there would be any difference between having the shell property set to air when used as a reference or steel when used as a sub and doing the over ride for a configuration named "reference".

Re: Set subassembly weight in assembly level.
Kevin Chandler Jan 2, 2018 12:14 PM (in response to Jim Steinmeyer)Hello,
I created a custom material, which can't be zero density, but its "Mass density" is set to the max decimal places out before the one.
You can add a configuration for your reference and assign the nothing material.
Then choose the nothing mass config in your assembly.
Cheers,
Kevin
