Sheet metal corners

Hi Guys,

Been using Fusion for a while now but recently thought I would delve into the sheet metal side.

I have created a simple end plate with 3 bends based on some drawings I have but the drawing show a kind of circular cut whereas my design has come out square.....is there a setting to change to get this or would I just cut the shape from the flat pattern to the effect?

Thanks for the reply, I have been through the different bend overides and although they show the option to change from square to tear and round nothing happens when I change it........

Attached is a similar design without the holes but all other dims are the same as wanted to check incase the holes were effecting it.

I don't see any dimensions on ~~Sketch1~~ Sketch2?

Do you have any idea what dimensions you need for this feature?

I havent been given a set dimension for these, can you offer a screencast on how you achieved this please?

I have adjusted the attached doc to the exact dimensions

I hope you will notice I moved your timeline back to the original sketch and removed all features before starting. This removes all your overrides and allows me to set up your sheet metal rule to apply to all bends. Screencast shows it all and model is attached.
