I have a sheet metal cover panel that is constructed as a lofted flange. It has several square to round transitions. I flatten the part with the triangulation option turned on to create the bend centerlines. In draft I would like to know what the bend angle is on the center lines that it creates. I have tried using the property text both %BN and %BA but it generates a 0 degree angle for every bend. Does SE export bend angle data for flattened lofted flanges? If so how can I access?
