Hi, everyone!

 

I was wondering: is there a way to set in parameters or templates the bend position to “add geometry” instead of standard option to the keep wall profile?

 

I would like to have it as default for all my designs from the beggining instead of having to set it manually on every new design.

 

Bend position.

 

Thanks in advance.

I don’t know if you can set a default. As a work-around, you can start the operation using a mapkey to pre-select that option.

I have more than 100 engineers. Setting a mapkey is still a manual process and still cause errors.

I would expect something that could be easily replicated and that left no room for user errors or omissions.

In creo 12, feature presets were introduced but unfortunately I don’t think they have been extended to sheet metal features as of yet. There is a post explaining them
