Are you saying you are chamfering a edge, and not a corner? I bet if
you preselect the side of the part that is longer then make a flat
pattern you will get a different result. I believe it just takes the
area of the selected side, and it expects square edges.

> I've noticed that if I add a chamfer to my sheet metal part, the flat
pattern shrinks? I've tried using 'Chamfer' in Part modelling mode,
'Cut' in sheetmetal mode and Corner Chamfer (but the edge can't be
selected). All options give me a shorter flat pattern, then if no
chamfer applied.
