Creating compound angle bends

Is it possible to create bends across compound angles?  I have tried with no success.

I have attached a file that I want to create bends between the blue & red faces and the blue & green faces.

I do not want a bend between the red & green faces.

I even tried making all faces adaptive, thinking that might work but it didn't.

 

Thanks,

Ken -

I would use Contoured Flange to model the red and green faces with bends.

 

Anyhow I went ahead and followed along what you were doing.

 

If you didn't want these faces extended as I did - then you need to give more information on exactly what you are trying to do.
Perhaps model as close as you can using standard tools and then ask how it would be done using sheet metal tools.

That's exactly what I was looking for.

I didn't think to use corner seam and then bend.

Thanks.
