Can I have some additional help regarding this, please?

I've done the family table, everything looks fine and dandy whilst in the drawing. However, if I want to print it(seen only in preview, or on the paper of course), or export it to .dwg or .dxf the view that was flat patterned turns back into its bent shape.

Make sure you have both instances of the model in your drawing if you need them.

One flat pattern and one non flat pattern.

That way you can show both on the drawing.

Huh, strange. I've tried to replicate the problem I've stated on my computer, however it works great for me. The problem was actually for one of my colleagues. The drawing had both models added(flat patterned, and non), both were shown in the drawing, however once in the print preview or .dwg the flat pattern would revert back for some reason.

I've used the exact same steps in creating the family table / adding the models on both my colleague's PC and mine(we have the same CREO version, M010), however we netted different results. I guess I'll just chalk it up as a..artefact.

Thanks for the input.
