I have a simple sheet metal part with one bend and

a draft of that part.

How can I bring in a flat view of that part into my

draft and dimension it

thanks

Tim
 
If this is a real sheet metal part you can do a flat pattern feature, usually as the last feature in the model.

Feature>CREATE>FLAT PATTERN
 
We create an instance with the flat pattern feature suppressed.
