Hello all:

I have a question related to sheetmetal design/production. I have a large part model that will be formed during manufacting. I need to supply the shop with a flat sheet layout drawing. Is it possible to create a flatsheet layout with a part that has numerous sketches/pads/pockets/RIBS etc...?
I think the ribbed section of my part is giving me the problems to make the flat sheet. When I create the "Walls Recognition" it gives me an error saying "A face, an edge, or a vertex is no longer recognized." Does anyone know how to get around this?

Thanks in advance

Regards,
Bacvar
