Can you Suppress/Unsuppress model features after activating the "Flat Pattern"?

Hi,  I'm looking for some iLogic code to suppress some features in the "Folded Model" after activating the "Flat Pattern" and then unsuppressing after exiting "Flat Pattern".  Is this possible? If so, can someone help me out?

 

Thanks in advance

Yes, sure can.  Please see attached and thank you for responding.  To be brief, I would like to suppress the two bend part features after the "Go to Flat Pattern" is selected and then Return after the "Go to Folded Model" is selected.  I have a rule started in part but don't know where to go from here.

Hi @dgreatice

 

Would be helpful to be able to create detail drawing for flat pattern, but not necessary.  As long as I'm able to switch between "Folded" and "Unfolded" in the part and then able to place the "Flattened" version on a main assembly drawing to detail would be perfect.

 

Thanks, Micah
