The total Stack Up Cost is presented in the Stack Up Information grid …
… and the totals section of the Technical Report

15. Material Library password – protect against unauthorised changes
Protecting the Material Library against unauthorised changes can be important in some environments. The open padlock indicates that the library is unlocked and can be edited
Selecting this padlock for the first time will prompt the user to enter a password. At this point the padlock will close and the library is locked.
Entering the correct password will open the padlock, the library can then edited

16. Enhanced Printing Configuration
It is now possible to control the decimal precision of the Stack up Thickness separately from the other numeric fields on the report
