How do I change the Mass values in the massproperties command. It is returning 1lb per cu in.
Thanks

Hi
As far as I know, you can not within vanilla AutoCAD ( though something could be written in AutoLISP / VBA / etc to work round this limitation ).
I believe AutoCAD uses a density of 1 with the _.MassProp command.
I believe Inventor and_or Mechanical Desktop allow different densities to be set.
Take a look at the following threads, hopefully they will give you one or two ideas...
converting units
AutoLISP routine to calculate the total weight of steel
Have a good one, Mike
