Can't delete Bend in Sheet Metal WB

Post by Routerworks »

Can't seem to modify or remove bends in Sheet Metal WB.
My goal is to flatten the bends and add the additional length to cover the bends. The sheet metal shop needs a flat representation of the part for their CNC plasma machine.

Please follow one of theink in my signature and give us your full FreeCAD version information and the version information of your sheetmetal workbench.

I'm on my mobile, therefore I can't have a look at your file yet.

Very interesting, thanks for the help.
I updated "Sheet Metal" WB and it all started to work. Before it wouldn't open up the properties window.
It looks like it automatically adds the width of the bend depending on the K factor chosen.

Help much appreciated.
