So we have been using this method for several years and recently it has become flakey and I cant figure out why.
For this part we are building a part of a duct. We use a linked excel sheet to import parameters into a standard part that sets the internal (airspace) of the duct, fp-00.ipt. then we derive fp-00.ipt into the Sheetmetal part, fp-01. We build fp-01 using the geometry from fp-00. We have a flat pattern of fp-01 on which we use driven dimensions and projected geometry and the punch tool to create tic marks where bends need to be made.
When I resize the final part from the excel sheet some tic marks are offset, other tic marks will be exactly where they should be. It seems as if it thinks the center point for my punch tool is somewhere else. If I double click the punch feature as if to edit, tic marks immediately go to where they are supposed to be.
For years this system has updated immediately after pressing the update button (lighting bolt) after changing the parameters.
I attached the parts I use. this is a much simplified version, usually the fp-00 is a multibody part and there 30-60 parts per assembly. I cant seem to find a correlation on whe
