To Create a Bend by Offsetting a Bend Line or an Edge
1. Click > 
Bend. The Bend tab opens.
Bend. The Bend tab opens.2. Select an edge or curve as an offset reference for the bend line.
Alternatively, first select the geometry and then click Bend.
Bend.Use the following configuration options to control the default values and behavior of selected tool settings:
◦ board_drive_tools_by_parameters—Uses parameter values as the default values of selected tool settings and to automatically update features when parameter values change.
◦ board_drive_bend_by_parameters—Uses parameter values to control the default value of bend angle and bend dimension location settings and to automatically update features when parameter values change.
 | If you want to enable board_drive_bend_by_parameters, you must also set board_drive_tools_by_parameters to yes. |
3. Click Placement. The Placement tab opens. Click Offset bend line.
4. Set the offset distance. Type a value in the box, drag the handle, or double-click a value.
5. Click a Bend Area Position command to locate the bend line in relation to the bend area.
◦ 
Starts at Bend Line—The bend area starts at the bend line.
