Physical Properties Update Problem (Sweep feature)

Hi,

Problem is why physical properties update does not work when sketch dimensions are changed.
No matter what sketch dimension I change mass (3.314kg) and other physical properties are always the
same. I assume this is caused by sweep feature because when some other feature is used everything works
like it should.
"Part1 Var2" has the exactly same physical prop. values like originally created file "Part1 Var1"

Thanks,
LJ

Hi LJ,

Many thanks for posting this issue. I'll speak with the mass properties team to investigate why this doesn't automatically update.

For now, if you perform a "Rebuild All" on your part after editing the sketch (or drag your EoP marker over the feature and back again), you will be able to Update the mass properties to the correct value.

Thanks!

Hi Jake

I just tried function "Rebuild all" and dragging EoP marker.
Performing "Rebuild all" does not help, but EoP dragging works fine.

I appreciate your prompt replay. Thanks again.
