Sheet Metal Bend Notes for radiused edge flanges

Sheet Metal Bend Notes for radiused edge flanges

Sheet Metal Bend Notes for radiused edge flanges

(OP)
Does anyone know if it is possible to put bend notes on a flat pattern's radiused edge flanges.  SW 07 allows the new radiused edge flanges, but I can't find a way to display bend notes for them.

RE: Sheet Metal Bend Notes for radiused edge flanges

You will have to add a regular note (with or without a leader). I'm guessing that this is just an ommission by SW, the Bend Note is not added because the curved flange is not really a bend (in reality it would be rolled) and so uses a different algorithm which does not trigger the Bend Note function.

Submit an ER if it is an important function for you.

cheers
