Hello,

I have a 4mm thick sheet, but in EXPRESSIONS window, thickness is displayed as 3mm (like a default value, I guess..) I will add Sheet_Metal_Material_Thickness as an attribute so, how can I get this value correct?

Open the sheet metal preferences and set the material thickness desired in the part properties. Then edit your tab feature, click on the thickness dropdown and use the "global thickness" option.

Yep, as cowski states, use the preferences to drive the feature data.
