How to create this part?:


in CreoElements (ProE Wildfire 5) with Bend feature?

My procedure was:

1. Create a plate of sheetmetal
2. Cutout rectangle
3. Create a flange on the inner edge of cut rectangle in chosen length
4. Unbend
5. Measure distance from unbend edge to sheetmetal plate edge
6. Edit flange - add distance to make it aligned

My point of view would be:

1. Make two rips
2. Bend ripped part

I assumed the Bend feature should be able to do this in one step.
