I am trying to create a sheet metal model of a part with flanges formed from a rectangular cut-out in the center of the part. The corners of the flanges are 45 degrees.
If I use an edge flange, I can only do opposite sides of the rectangle. When the other flanges are added, SolidWorks can't unfold it, because the corners interfere.
When I try adding sketched bends, SW says it csn't figure out the geometry.
I've tried adding them as extrusions, but SW won't convert them to bends.
