Sheetmetal Bend Centerlines Disappearing When Increasing Bend Angle Past a Certain Point

I am designing a part that has a few bends and two flanges I want to add in the same feature so that the place where they intersect will automatically miter. When I have the bend angle at 38 degrees or less there are no issues and the bend centerlines stay in the flat pattern and are visible in the drawing. If I change the angle to 39 degrees of more (I want 50 degrees) the corner relief looks rounded and the centerlines disappear.

Is there something I can change with the corner relief in order to keep a larger angle? If I select the two edges in two separate features it will keep the centerlines as long as the two flanges do not intersect, but you do not get a very tight seam, which I want to weld solid in the final part I am making. Any help would be greatly appreciated! I have tried uploading two different screencasts MANY times and for some reason I cannot.
