Sheet Metal Defaults Multi-Editing

Sheet Metal Defaults Multi-Editing

Hi!

 

I would like to have an function where you can edit sheet metal default rules on many sheet metal parts at the same time. I need this so i can rapidly change K-factor (which often is determined after part is made) , without having to open every single part...

 

What about making Sheet Metal Default as a RMB option in the Assembly model tree?

or in workspace folder(like iproperties already is)?

So I can mark all the parts i need, and change Sheet Metal Rule/Unfold Rule on all of them.

 

Thanks!

Why do you need different K-factor for same sheet metal? For diffrent radius bend and angle?

@MoshiurRashid Hi! I dont need different K-factor on the same sheet metal part. But the ability to change many parts at the same time.. In our company we use differt K-factors based on what method we use to form sheet metal plates..(Bending,Rolling) And also sometimes based on material. I can have up to 100 parts in a assembly, so if the production team suddenly deside to change machining method then its alot of work afterwards. Also if you just simply forget to change K-factor when making the part, which is easy to do when working on multiple parts at the same time. 


P.S K-Factor make different length in Flat Pattern.
