New to solid edge Help on a very basic how to.
(OP)
I am trying to draw a simple sheet metal part and just can't seem to get it. The part is .024 thick, stainless. It is simply a horizontal line with a half circle, open side up,on the end or right side. The radius of the half circle is .1 and the part will be .625 wide. When I try to finish the profile I get the msgs, "all line to arc relationships must be tangent in the contour flange profile", or "more than one profile has been detected". I am using solid edge version 11. any help would be greatly appreciated.
Thank You,

The Tab command creates a flat sheet from which you would then use the "flange" or "contour flange" commands to add flanges to the tab edges.
The Second error message appears when you have an element that is not connected to the rest of the profile, If you are zoomed to the extents when you press "finish" the offending element(s) should be highlighted when the error dialog appears.

Try adding a fillet to the point where the line and the half circle meet, this would achieve the tangental relationship that it is asking for. I believe in this situation you must manually add the bend radius between a line and an arc.
Hopefully one of these two will be of help!
