density change
density change
(OP)
In NX6 , I've edited the density of a couple of my custom materials,
The only way i can get parts that have that material, to update to the correct weight, is to open the material proporties dialog, delete the line with that ticked material, then re-pick the material (it re-appears at the bottom of the list), and then select the body.
I guess it's because when you pick a material out of the library, it brings it into the part (breaking the link)
Is there any way to update all of these parts, without opening each one and doing this?
