Unable to flatten bends in sheet metal part

Did you make any cuts in it? Make sure that all faces are proper and not slicing at an angle to the thickness.

Thanks Wayne, Sorted now. The problem was due to large fillet added late in process that sat over the top of a fillet derived from an earlier surface cut. Took a bit of finding. Had to supress items back through the history tree bit by bit and try to unfold at various stages to see what was causing it to not unfold. Thanks for the post anyway. Regards, David

Something that I always teach when working with SW sheet metal is to get into the habit of hitting the flatten button often. It sits on the toolbar, is easy to do, and lets you know right away when you have a problem, rather than finding out maybe days later that something at the top of the tree kills the flatten. I hit it pretty much after every major change. Oh, don't forget to save in there also. :-)

Great advice Wayne, you have earned a gold star! lol

Hi Wayne, Thanks for the tip! Regards, David
