Sheet metal offset cannot be a new body?

Sheet metal offset cannot be a new body?

I'm making a sheet metal model, and I'm starting with one flat planar wall feature. Next, I want to "offset" this wall to create a new, unconnected flat planar wall, and make it a separate body. However, I cannot figure out how to tell Creo that this unconnected wall is meant to be a separate body. Is this possible in Creo 8?

My understanding of this is as follows:

 

In sheet metal mode, there can only be one sheet metal body. You can have multiple solid bodies in the model.
