part volume

[tinag]

Hello,


Im trying to find the volume of a complex part in 2001. Im sure there used to be an option in setup which calculated the volume ! does anyone know where this option has gone ? Im using 2001 flex3c package.


TIA

go to analysis\ model mass properties and it spits something like this out


VOLUME = 1.4388980e-01 INCH^3
SURFACE AREA = 4.0059899e+00 INCH^2
DENSITY = 1.0000000e+00 POUND / INCH^3
MASS = 1.4388980e-01 POUND
