Bend IDs not showing in flat view

I have a master part file that has several sheet metal bodies. The bodies that are modeled are also mirrored into there own separate bodies within the same model. I have derived each body into its own separate part file and  created a flat pattern for each. The problem is creating the bend tables for the individual flat patterns in a drawing. It seems the bodies that were mirrored sometimes do not pull all the bend IDs onto the flat view (yet some mirrored parts do pull all the IDs). The non mirrored parts seem to work as expected. Why does this happen? Is there a way to manually add the IDs? Is it a bug perhaps?

Hi! This sounds like a bug to me. Try editing the Mirror feature and expand the dialog -> select "Adjust" in Compute Method. Then go to Manage -> Rebuild All. Do those missing Bend ID reappear? If no, please share the file with me directly at [email protected]. I would like to understand the issue better.

Many thanks!

Thank you Johnsonshiue for looking at this. It seems adjust is not available in this situation... 2 emails sent due to file size being too large.

Hi! Many thanks for sharing the files! Without disclosing the detail, I can comment as such. The missing Bend ID behavior is confirmed. I am still trying to understand the behavior better. I don't have a good explanation why the Bend IDs are missing on certain bends but not all bends. But the Bend Lines and Bend Extent are properly displayed.

I will let you know what I find.

Thanks again!
