Updating folded sheet metal body with changes made in flat pattern

I made a couple of changes while in flat pattern (a relief cut and split a body) and, before I made many more changes, wanted to make sure that the changes were appearing in the folded model. In fact, they did not. What do I need to do to get the model to update?

Well, I unfolded and created the circle with which to make the relief cut. The problem now is that, in the cut operation, I cannot get it to select the bend. It can select both bends but omits the bend.

Thanks, Gunther! I had to play with it a bit but I got it to work.

Gunther, it now seems that splitting the body is now preventing me from refolding the model. I'm wondering if I missed some step in the solution that you provided.
