I created a 2 dwg with flat pattern view from a sheet metal model
I open the 3D model and suppressed the flat pattern and open 2d dwg again - the view on the 2d dwg is not shown as a flat pattern any more even though the flat pattern is still checked in the feature manager - see att. image
it never happed like this before with older releases
What am I doing wrong here?
Thx
Hello
As Wayne said normally you don't have to do something in flat configuration. In parent configuration flat feature must be suppressed and in flat pattern config must be unsuppressed.
Thx, guy
What happened is: I open the 3D model from the 2D dwg and the 3D model was open in the flat pattern config. and I suppressed the flat pattern to see the part in the folded state - I should swithch the config. instead

I'm not sure what you think you remember, but clicking the Flat pattern box only tells SW to create and reference the flat pattern derived config. If you change that config, then the drawing will reflect that change. As a general rule, you shouldn't ever have to go to the flat pattern config and do anything, but your description makes me think that's what you did.
