Simple 'edge flange' problem
Simple 'edge flange' problem
(OP)
Hi there,
I'm hoping this is one of those silly questions that takes 5 seconds to answer. Having had the program for 4 days, 2 of those have involved trying to figure this out.
Its a question about sheet metal edge flanges. I've attached a zip of 2 screens that might make things easier to understand.
I start with a simple metal square 50mm on a side x 2mm. SW tells me its fully defined.
I try to add the edge flange, doing exactly the same as the 6 or so different guides I followed shows.
As soon as I try to finalise the flange, I get an error balloon saying "Rebuild Errors - this part requires a fully defined sketch"
I've checked everything multiple times....and i really am out of ideas. Can anyone help please?

-handleman, CSWP (The new, easy test)
RE: Simple 'edge flange' problem
But that method is a PITA to do continually so I agree with handleman. Uncheck Use fully defined sketches setting under Tools > Options > System Options > Sketch

Sometimes it feels like its the smallest things to learn that give you the biggest headaches.
