NX11 - WGT(KG) & P_Mass columns

NX11 - WGT(KG) & P_Mass columns

NX11 - WGT(KG) & P_Mass columns

(OP)
For the Assembly navigator, the list of column options has a "Weight(kg)" available. However, it is only giving the weights for the standard components and such. It is left empty for Make Details. If I add the attribute column "P_MASS" to the Navigator (which is where the wgt in our title blocks reads from) it works for the Make Details but not the standard components. In NX9 there was never a problem. One column showed the wgts of all components.

The strange thing I noticed is, it looks like the total at the top of the column for the Weight(kg) column actually adds up all the make details wgts with the standard components, but it just doesnt show their weights in the column.

Notice, there is one component that is read in the P_Mass column, but instead of the Weight(kg) being blank like all the others, it lists it at 0.0000. I have no idea as of yet why it reads that one in the P_Mass column.

Is there a setting that changes what the Weight(kg) column reads?
Basically, we would prefer one column doing all components rather than having to use two separate columns to do what one column should be able to do.
