Any way to change the default density
Any way to change the default density
(OP)
Is there any way to change the default density from 1 to .283.
So when it asks for a density value of a part that has not had a value assigned, it will default to .283 instead of 1.
Sorry, have "mass_property_calculate" set to automatic an am get'n a little lazy. Don't want to have to type .283 & enter for a million parts every time I open a job done by someone else.

RE: Any way to change the default density
Now hit Record, and go through the steps of assigning a new density (Edit > Setup... Mass Props, Density = .283, Ok, Done). Hit Stop in the Record Mapkey dialog box, then OK. Save the mapkey (it's stored in your config file) then close.
Now whenever you open a part, all you have to do is type whatever key sequence you assigned, and the density will get changed.
Hope this helps,

The purpoe of a start part is capture your companies standards so every part created is consistent.
