Bend notes on drawing

Is there a way to make Inventor automatically add a note, along the bend line, indicating bend direction, number of degrees and bend radius?

Also, in 2013, where are the bend tables located?

I've checked the help file, and it's telling me c\program files\autodesk\inventor 2013\design data

 

I followed that path, but I do not have the "design data" folder it's calling for.

Thank you very much for your help.

To add bend notes:

Annotate > Feature Notes > Bend

Edit the bend note or Edit the dimension style used for the bend note to add more options

 

 

The bend tables are in:

C:\Users\Public\Documents\Autodesk\Inventor 2013\Design Data\Bend Tables

Thanks so much for the reply.

I've attached a screen shot showing the path you have listed,

but nothing called bend table.

Is there somewhere else it could be hidden?

Thanks again for the help.

Yup, the bend tables are clearly missing from your installation.

I have attached a copy of those files to this post. Try unzipping them to the folder I mentioned earlier.

If that still does not give you bend tables in a drawing, try a repair of Inventor.
