Is there a way in APDL to find either the volume or mass of a created structure? Its a fairly basic keypoint/line model with a defined cross section, thanks in advance! ![[glasses]](/data/assets/smilies/glasses.gif "[glasses] [glasses]")

Thanks, I got round the problem by listing and summing the length of every line then simply multiplying by cross sectional area and density
