toggle to flip default flat pattern in template

toggle to flip default flat pattern in template

The default flat pattern orients bends to bend down. When bending plates with a press brake it is nicer for the operator to have bend up orientation where possible. Als o when laser engraving bendlines it is better to have them on the inside of the bend then on the outside.

 

The only way to fix this now is to manualy go to each part and either flip the flat pattern or redefine A-side.Then to verify you have to make an idw to check the bend direction because there is no good way of seeing this in the model flat pattern.

 

I would like a toggle on a template level to prioratize bend up or bend down.
