Sheetmetal flatstate preview is False when its a V shaped and chamfered

Sheetmetal flatstate preview is False when its a V shaped and chamfered

Hello,

If you create a sheetmetal in Creo Parametric that has a corner of a V shape, like this one below :

If we add chamfers to the edges, the flat preview shows incorrect dimensions :

The problem is that the feature FLAT PREVIEW relies on these 2 parameters :

- SMT_FLAT_PATTERN_LENGTH

- SMT_FLAT_PATTERN_WIDTH

These 2 parameters calculate dimensions related to the pilote surface. Can you upgrade the feature so it gives a correct calculation also for chamfered sheetmetals?

 

Thanks in advance
