If you want your bend lines to show up or if you don't; this is a nice feature I discovered the hard way.
I'm going to skip the basics like how to choose the page size, output strategies, etc... I have not explored how to include the hidden line for laser marking your bend position, but here goes:
As the process is almost identical I'll write both out and I'll differentiate with all caps and bold italic in the text.
If you WANT the bend lines to show:
Once you've created your sheet metal part, Go to the CREATE dropdown menu and choose CREATE FLAT PATTERN and follow the cues. Choose the Design Drop Down Menu and choose Drawing >from design. Follow the cues for your PRINTED PAGE.
If you DON'T want the bend lines to show:
Once you've created your sheet metal part, Go to the MODIFY dropdown menu and choose UNFOLD and follow the cues. Choose the Design Drop Down Menu and choose Drawing >from design. Follow the cues for your DIGITAL OUTPUT.
NOTE*** Beware of one thing though with your new drawing without bend lines... the bend lines are hidden, but they still do trigger a response from the dimension tool, so take care if you decide to add dimensions to your digital output.
