Mass Properties (Mass) not updating when changing global variables CSWP practice

Justin Swiderski Jan 14, 2019 9:00 AM

I am practicing for the CSWP and we have to change the global variables several times then give the new Mass in the Mass Properties tab. However, the mass never changes. Yes, I have the rebuild automatically updated and have done it manually, but still does not work.

I have seen this questions raised before, but with no definitive answer. There must be something I am missing...

Definitive answer....put an equal sign in front of the variable in the dimension box. Wow, can't believe I missed that.

  That will do it! I always seem to get caught up with those little details because I'm so focused on the 'hard' stuff.
