Hello,

I have been looking for this some time and saw more people have this question.
I have found a way how you can do this.
Start visual reporting found under the information button which is between the pallettes at the side of the screen.
Put the report type on Weigth kg
Click on the wrench to edit it
The under report Property put source on "Component Property" and Property on "Desrciptive Part Name"
Press OK
Now every unique part gets its own color and in the info window you can see how many of there are of each part.
And when you click on the name you can even see where they are located in the model.
See also the attachement.

Regards, Michel

Groeten, Michel
