Cant create flat pattern

Hi!

 

I'm rather new to fusion 360 and overall to 3D drawing.

 

I have created a body according to a video i found somewhere on the forum. unfortunately i cant find it anymore.

Anyway i cant create flat pattern out of it or add flanges to the top side besides the 1 and only side that was converted by projecting the side sketch and making it into a flange. 

 

I first made the body then projected a sketch to 1 side and made it in to a flange. Then i combined the body to flange.

 

Is there a fault in my workflow somewhere? Or is there an easier way to produce this? My end goal here is to get the flat pattern so i can export it to a different software for manufacture.

Apparently using thicken the other way around, not inwards but outwards makes the flange follow which then connects the sides and allows the part to be made to flat pattern.
