Bend Deviation PropertyManager with the loft sheet steel tools
When you create a lofted bend, you can examine the surface area and curve lengths of the bend. These items are located in the Bend Deviation PropertyManager.
To examine bend deviation:
In the FeatureManager design tree:
Right-click Flat-Pattern1 and select Unsuppress.
Click
to expand Flat-Pattern1.
Right-click Flatten-<Freeform Bend1>1, and select Bend Deviation.The graphics area callouts display the bend deviation values for each edge. The bend deviation plane for the Bend
Thanks
