Reorder feature in sheet metal
Reorder feature in sheet metal
(OP)
Hi,
on big sheet metal thickness, we add chamfers in the outside profile or in screw holes that begun 'Countersunk Screw Hole'.
We don't use Countersunk Screw Hole because in the flat-pattern we need to hide manually all external edge of Countersunk Screw Hole, instead with chamfers we can exclude them (chamfers) for a moment to produce the dxf flat-pattern.
Now, I ask you if there is a solution to exclude some feature to the flat-pattern or reorder them after the flat-pattern so we don't need to manually manipulate the drawings or the dxf flat-pattern.
