*1*: Only active if option is possible
*2*: only active if BEND is planar face
*3*: Resets BEND and ANCHOR

Options

The following options are available.

:BEND-FACE - Specifies a bend face to be folded or unfolded.
:BASE-FACE - Specifies a face which keeps its position. Must be connected to a bend face.
:ON_LINE - if more bends are geometrically the same, they can be combined to one bend using this option.
:SINGLE - if the bends consist of more independent bend, this options allows to only process the clicked bend.
:BEND-PROCESS - specifies the bend process to use (for unfolded bends).
:RADIUS - specifies the bend radius (for unfolded bends).
:BEND-ANGLE -specifies the bend angle (for unfolded bends).
:REVERSE - reverses the bend direction (for unfolded bends).
:TWEAK-CHECK - specifies whether or not to check the sheet metal part.
:PREVIEW - Triggers preview of the action.
:NEXT - Triggers performance of the action and resets BEND and ANCHOR of the dialog.

When to use

Use this action when designing sheet metal parts with Sheet Metal. The function can be used to unfold a bend, punch a hole through the bend and refold the bend.
