Different bends in sheetmetal

Different bends in sheetmetal

Different bends in sheetmetal

(OP)
Is there a way to put bends with different radii on the same contour flange?  I drew the side profile, which is similar to a "z".  I need one of the bends to be R0.05 and the other to be R0.11.  So far, they both default to the set value, but I want to be able to set each one separately.

I'm running sheetmetal with V15.  Thanks in advance!

Hi,

hmm, just sketch the 'Z' and then apply different rounds to each
vertex while still in sketch mode. Then the contour flange
will use that profile and the default radius won't be applied

Thanks donyoung!

I was looking for a feature or control that allowed me to apply a different bend.  I should've thought to look at the obvious!
