When a part’s material is defined, its mass and other material-dependent properties are calculated automatically. The creator of the part can define the material in the CAD tool, or you can assign a material to a part in Creo View. Select a default material to have automatically assigned to parts without a defined material. Create a list of materials manually, or import an XML (*.xml) file that contains each material’s name, density, and unit of measurement. Use the Creo View Options dialog box to add, edit, or delete materials.

Using the Part Properties dialog box, you can view the following information and copy it to the clipboard:

You can also create a summary measurement to display the properties.
