I would like to extract the mass property values using scripting in SpaceClaim for a specfic body selection.

Thanks,

Which of the mass properties are you looking for?

To get volume of a part on the tree see this:

volume = GetRootPart().Bodies[0].Shape.Volume

Also the MeasureHelper functionality can help with that.
selection = BodySelection.Create(GetRootPart().Bodies[0])
volProps = MeasureHelper.MeasureVolume(selection)

To get mass with MeasureHelper one needs to assign density (properties) to the part in question.
Then one can use the MeasureHelper GetMassProperties method to get the information.

All this can be recorded via the UI and them the above calls will be visible.

Search the forum and the internet to see how to record SC scripts.


All the best
