Hi, all. New member here, with my 1st question:
I have a decent amount of experience with SW sheet metal, but I don't often start things with the Base Flange feature, and when I have, I've never had to later change the sheet metal thickness. But it doesn't appear possible to change the sheet metal thickness of a part started with Base Flange after the fact. I started out with a box with .06 thickness, but as the design has evolved, the box is much bigger now, and I want to change its thickness to .09, but the thickness value is disabled (grayed out) in the Sheet Metal feature now. Rolling back doesn't work (but why shouldn't it?)and I can't change it in Equations. The help file is helpless (for this, it seems, anyway). This has to be something simple that I'm missing - I will resist shooting myself when I get the answer
