RE: Tools > Mass Properties ghosted.

I have had this issue a couple of times with Alternate Position Views.  It's like the button just doesn't get enabled again when it's disabled due to a currently running function.  Try running this macro:

CODE

Sub main()
Application.SldWorks.ActiveDoc.ToolsMassProps
End Sub

If it works it will show you the mass properties and it will re-enable the button.
