Project flat pattern: no bending zone found

[Anonymous]

Hi,

when we want to do a project flat pattern, we get this error on all our models.
I added the inventor 2017 model to this post.

any idea?

Sorry no idea, just replying to say that i didn't have any issue in IV2018(.2.3)

From your image it appears that you have selected a Bend rather than a planar Face.

Hmm, I just tested with your file and I can pick bend or flat to project.

Works just fine..

Have you installed all updates for Inventor 2017?

Hi! I cannot reproduce the behavior on 2017.4.3 either. Does Rebuild All help?

Many thanks!

@Anonymous I tried on 2017.4 and it worked fine. Is there any iLogic or Rules throwing a wrench in the works?

It sounds like you can you reproduce this, can you record a screencast of the behavior, maybe we're all missing something.

@Anonymous did you have any success in getting the part to show without the error?
