Attached please find a video on the exposure of Flexible Modeling tools in Sheet Metal. It focuses on selection and geometry modification tools that are available in regular part mode and had been adapted for the Sheet Metal environment to honor guidelines such as constant wall thickness and other specific rules.

In particular note how Move and Remove refine the selection automatically and how other tools like substitute, offset, etc are only allowed for side surfaces.

Pattern recognition and propagation are supported for operations such as move.

 

Have fun!

Looking forward to your feedback.

 

Best regards..Martin

Martin,

 

Does a current PTCU course cover the enhancements that you show in this video?

I am aware of sections about "Using Flexible Modeling in Sheetmetal mode" in some update trainings to Creo 4.0 and Creo 5.0, but it is not very extensive. I used this opportunity to check back with my PTCU colleagues.
