I appreciate it. Unfortunately, when I try to switch the sheet metal rule using your suggestion I still don't get the option to switch the rule. I wonder what i did wrong. Maybe something in my model is stopping that?</P> Wed, 10 May 2023 17:15:40 GMT https://forums.autodesk.com/t5/fusion-design-validate-document/is-it-possible-to-change-sheet-metal-rule-thickness-after-i/m-p/11954986#M39507 scottavidon 2023-05-10T17:15:40Z https://forums.autodesk.com/t5/fusion-design-validate-document/is-it-possible-to-change-sheet-metal-rule-thickness-after-i/m-p/11955005#M39508 <P>Hi John,</P><P>&nbsp;</P><P>I figured it out.
