Adding rigid joints before bending sheet metal

I exported a PCB (built in Fusion 360 Electronics) as an igs file and then uploaded it so that I could modify the bodies.

 

I am designing an FPCB so I need to convert the board body, as well as some trace bodies, to sheet metals so that I can apply a few bends. I would like to assign as-built joints between the PCB & all of the surface mount components so that they stay on their pads after applying the bends.

 

I already tried this but the components did not move with the bent PCB. Any ideas what I can do?
