Unfolding Sheetmetal in a Drawing?

Johnathon Green Nov 30, 2011 10:53 PM

Im making some Third Angle Projections for class...is there anyway to unfold the sheetmetal part in the isometric view without affecting the other views? using SW 2011 student edition.

You must make configurations in the part and bring the views into your drawing.

Right click your view in the drawing go to 'properties' and change the configuration from the drop down once you have created the configs.

Eg. Config 1 will have the flat pattern unsuppressed
Config 2 will have the flat pattern suppressed. (which will be all your projection views)
