How do I put Sheet Metal feature attributes in a Design Table?
How do I put Sheet Metal feature attributes in a Design Table?
(OP)
I have one sheet metal part with two configurations. Each configuration has different bend radii (amoung other things). Solidworks forces any change in the bend radius to be applied over all the configurations. Is there any workaround for this "feature"?






RE: How do I put Sheet Metal feature attributes in a Design Table?
I just created a sheet metal part with a design table and SolidWorks let me change the bend radius for each configuration. So either I do not understand your question or maybe you are using a different version of SolidWorks. What version and service pack are you working with?

I create a sheetmetal part, create an edge flange, add a configuration, edit the feature to change the bend radius on the new configuration, and discover that the original configuration has changed too.
Sadly, I do not know enough about design table syntax to just guess at what the variable name(s) might be.

The key to applying different dimension values to "Feature" dimensions is to double click the feature then edit the dimension that pops up. Then you get the same dimension dialogue that you see in sketches. you can also show all dimensions in the mode from the "Annotations" folder located at the top of the feature tree.
