Inventor 2018 Bend Note Wrong Angle

We are having an issue showing correct bend annotations.

 

This issue occurs during the creation of a cutout that goes across a flange. If part of the cutout extends past the beginning of the bend, but does not pass the end of the bend, the angle to which it will be bent is different than the angle value entered into the bend
command. This is shown in the cutout in the drawing. The middle tab on the cutout does not have enough material to bend the full 90 degrees
and is only able to bend 79 degrees. When annotating the drawing,  Inventor will now show a 79 degree angle in the annotation, even though
the rest of the flange across the bend line is bent to an angle of 90 degrees.

Hello @JoeBarnes4076 I agree with @jletcher that the design might want to be rethought so you don't have that center bend, unless it has some function.

 

If you want to keep it there, using what you've already done when you do the refold don't select the center fold line and it will give you the 90° you're looking for. 

 

 

Hope that helps!
