System.Object^ GetMassProperties2( 
&   System.int Accuracy,
&   [Out] System.int Status,
&   System.bool UseSelected
) 

Parameters

Accuracy

• 0 = as is

• 1 = default

• 2 = maximum

Status

Error code as defined in swMassPropertiesStatus_e

UseSelected

True to return the mass properties of the selected components only, false to return the mass properties of the entire model, excluding suppressed components

Return Value

The return value is a 0-based array of doubles as follows:

[ CenterOfMassX, CenterOfMassY, CenterOfMassZ, Volume, SurfaceArea, Mass, MomXX, MomYY, MomZZ, MomXY, MomZX, MomYZ ]

Where:

• MomNN = NN-component of the moment of inertia taken at the center of mass and aligned with the output coordinate system 

You can use ISldWorks::GetUserPreferenceDoubleValue and swMaterialPropertyDensity to get the density of the SOLIDWORKS part. If the user did not explicitly set the density, then SOLIDWORKS uses a value of 1.0. You can also derive the density of the body by calculating:

Density = ( Mass / Volume )

This method:

• returns values in metric units.
• supports multibody parts.
