SheetMetal Styles fail to update

Anonymous

This has been a problem for years and I was hoping I could get some insight as to why this is still a problem.

 

When I create a sheet metal part and generate the flat pattern it creates the SheetMetalLength & SheetMetalWidth properties I can use in the material list that gives anyone the basic size of the flattened sheet.  All fine and dandy for the first generated part.

 

However, If I decide to use this part in another file, say "copy design" and change the size.  The SheetMetal Styles do not update.  They are forever the original size.  All parts and assemblies are updated and still no change.  This can be problematic when the size change is drastic.

 

Anyone else having this issue and have we fixed this yet?
