Hi,

The title is wrong, sorry.

It should be center of gravity relative to assembly coordinate system, not COG. Sorry.

When I put the COG_X, Y, Z values in a repeat region on a drawing it shows the parts COG relative to the parts local coordinate system.

I want it to show the COG relative to the assembly coordinate system.

I tried selecting a different CSYS when running the Mass Properties report, but it still shows the COG for the parts as if I ran the same report in the part file alone.

I have seen other threads that talk about showing the COG in a drawing, but I didn't see one that addressed this specific issue. If I am in error I apologize.

Thanks for your help.

Mike
