Does any one know if it is possible to create cosmetic centerlines in a flatpattern with the Inventor API??
eventualy I create a drawing of my flatpattern and export my Flatpattern to an Autocad dwg. for this I use the export option "Model Geometry only", because of this, any sketches made on the drawing are gone... so I want to make them in the flatpattern with the Cosmetic centerlines because them come on my drawing with the export..
thanks

Is it possible through UI? If yes, can you please provide steps to create cosmetic bend centerlines via UI?
For more understanding, video record or screencast would be better.
Thanks and regards,

@HermJan.Otterman and @GeorgK,
I checked with engineering team and informed that Inventor API does not support to cosmetic bend lines currently. Please log this wish list at idea station using below link.
