Hello,

In NX 7.5, I am trying to create some material property. I used "Material Library Manager" to export a single material property. It is a PA6 GF40. I am trying to edit the density to 1.48g/cu cm.

The entry on the xml file is
-<PropertyData property="MassDensity">

<Data format="exponential">1.440000e+003</Data>

I figure this would be a direct replacement of 1.44 to 1.48 but whenever I check the solid body for its density, I get Density (G/Cu Centimeter) = 1480000000.000000000

I am expecting it to show 1.48

What am I doing wrong?

Try and change this

<PropertyData property="Version">
<Data format="string">[highlight #EF2929]2011v1[/highlight]Data>

should be
<PropertyData property="Version">
<Data format="string">1.0</Data>
