In Advance Steel is there any way to stretch or trim/extend folded plates once they are created? I made some 1'-0" long folded plates that I would like to use for stair landings of various lengths. So far the only way I found to get the length I need is to merge several of them placed end-to-end (after overlapping the two at the end of the line to get the desired length). The plates are thin gauge metal bent similar in shape to cold-formed studs and are intended to have concrete fill.
Any update for this in 2019? I'm in a similar situation. I want to shorten one side/end of a bent plate.
Hey! nevermind. Figured it out.
Split Plate by points or line works to shorten a plate.
The Shrink/Expand Poly Plate is a good command for this too.
Well, Not sure why I didn't notice this before. I guess I'm just used to working with plain Solids. We can Grip Edit these plates. Duh!
