SOLIDWORKS Automatic Basemap

Hello

I would like to have the weight of the pieces that I draw automatically on each of my plans. Can you help me?

Thank you in advance.

Hello be.mig,
Welcome to the community, hoping you will find the solution...
So if you understand you want to know the total weight of your MEPs, it's a bit difficult to estimate, but what I can say is that you can add about 300KB for the basemap, it all depends on what you want to display...
Here is the rest random, it all depends on your part and under assembly. The more parts there are in your assembly, the bigger it becomes, but still remains random.
Sorry, I misinterpreted your request...
There you go, good luck.

Hello;

First, create a Mass property in your 3D models (assemblies and parts):
example

then to display this property in your drawings:

Using the Nomenclatures with a " Mass " column:

or by passing via an annotation:

But be careful with annotations if you're using configurations.
And that involves one room per Drawing.
