Sheet Metal

Sheet Metal

• In addition to sketch points, the Rip command now accepts work points, midpoints on edges, and endpoints on face vertices as valid rip points.
• Unconsumed sketches created in a sheet metal flat pattern can be exported to DWG or DXF format with expanded layer control. Use the new full DWG/DXF Layer Support to assign explicit colors, line types, and line weights to each exported sheet metal layer.
• The Copy to Flat Pattern feature allows one or more 2D sketches created in a folded sheet metal part to be copied to the part flat pattern. There is an associative link between the sketches such that a change made to the folded model sketch is automatically reflected in the flat pattern sketch. Visibility of the sketches may be toggled on and off from the browser, and the sketches participate fully in the expanded DWG/DXF layer support.
