Edge selection in sheet metal

[Anonymous]

Hi

I  am new to inventor need some help on below problems.

Problem 1 - When i am using flange command in inventor sheet metal, it shows me the number of edge selected as per attached image but what  if i select a wrong edge and i need to deselect it there is no option rather than exiting the full command.

Problem 2 - as per attached image if i need to change flange direction of particular edge what should i

do cause when i click the button it changes direction of all edges.

Thanks

1. CTRL click to unselect edge.

2. Separate features.

You just need to do the flange process twice...

Select all edges that you want one direction and create the flanges..

Then do another flange command to create the ones going the other direction..

Hi! Indeed, Inventor does not allow individual angular override to multi-edge flanges. One workflow you could consider is to use Direct Edit. You can use the command to change individual flange by selecting the related faces.

Many thanks!
