drawing rep

Hello All,

I am trying to use Drawing Representation menu in order to show 3 different states of a flange in a Proe Drawing. (power point presentation attached)
The main issue is that the flange goes around with a circular edge and the base of the flange is 4° angled, so it is not possible to unbend the feature with the regular operations of sheetmetal (because of this 4°).
Do you know more options to have this views represented in a drawing (keeping one single 3D parametric model).

Thanks for your comments.

Best Regards.

I would use a perimeter dimension so you can vary the bend angle while keeping the length of the "inside" surface fixed.
I think I would also convert the whole length into a spline, to be able to make the bend flatten out as shown in the "unbent" state.
The varied parameters could be controlled by a family table.
You would have to add all 3 instances of the family table to the drawing.
