Sheetmetal Flat State

Sheetmetal Flat State

Sheetmetal Flat State

(OP)
I have a formed and bent sheetmetal part and have also created a flat state instance of this part.  What is the easiest way to add both the flat state and the bent and formed state to the same drawing?

RE: Sheetmetal Flat State

Start a drawing w/ the bent model.  Place the views.  I belive under Views menu (2001) you can select Add Model.  Add your flat state and then place those view on a new sheet if you need to.

RE: Sheetmetal Flat State

Fighter Pilot's method is good. Just add the formed model first, then it's view, and then add the flat model and view to the drawing. This affects what model shows up in the model tree of each page.

And you can have both models and views on the same page.
