Hi all,

I would like to use the Closed Corner feature on the highlighted corner (I would describe it as a butted corner); unfortunately NX won't seem to let me. I could manually extend the end of the bent flange to go meet the top sheet, but I want to get the nice V-Cutout in the corner.

It works fine for me, do you mean like this?

if you use closed corner with closed treatment, overlapping and a small gap, the top sheet is cut back so you will need to extend it with a secondary tab. (The small gap is needed to allow the end to be extended).
