Sheet Metal functionality needs improvement

[simonjohnlacey]

The sheet metal functionality in Fusion doesn't seem to be up to snuff.  I try and make shapes pretty regularly and would love to know what the flat cut form of the shape is.  This is one of the big draws to the sheet metal functionality.  More often than not when unfolding or creating a flat pattern I get "compute failed" and sometimes the objects just explode.

This is just a request to fusion to invest more into the sheet metal functionality.  Its used for more than just electrical boxes :D.

Here's the shape

From the images it does not appear that you are following the 4 rules of sheet metal.

Sheet metal expects constant thickness so you need radii on all corners, looks like your model has some sharp corners. You can add small radii and it should work.
