Hi All,

I changed section properties from shell to solid.
Updated the prop. card, and component to reflect the changed section ids. Material was unchanged.
However I noticed when checking (utility>partInfo), that the mass is not updating. It says it is 0.

What is the correct procedure to change section properties and have
the model update accordingly to this change?

Thank you,
kgd

    Hi

    if you change section from shell to solid => then you have to change element from 2D to 3D, too
