Does anyone know if it is possible to put bend notes on a flat pattern's radiused edge flanges. SW 07 allows the new radiused edge flanges, but I can't find a way to display bend notes for them.

You will have to add a regular note (with or without a leader). I'm guessing that this is just an ommission by SW, the Bend Note is not added because the curved flange is not really a bend (in reality it would be rolled) and so uses a different algorithm which does not trigger the Bend Note function.

Submit an ER if it is an important function for you.
