SW 2004 does not tells if the sheet metal part crosses itself after folding?

Discussion in 'SolidWorks' started by Jean Marc BRUN, Oct 6, 2004.

  1. I have a sheet metal part where I have added folds on the flat.

    I just realised that it does not tell that the part crosses itself after
    folding. We just went to SW2004 from 2001+. I can't find where is the switch
    that puts the warning/ error back when it happens.

    Help

    TIA

  4. If it makes Jean Marc feel any better, I recently got caught by this
    one too. I got a nice tasty slice of humble pie when it was pointed
    out to me.

  5. In fact I put in production SW'04 last week, and I realised the problem
    playing with an octaedron in sheet metal. I guess i was lucky on this one,
    not having pb on any production part.

    We had a 2 days class on '04 last week, and the teacher (?) told us to tick
    that setting. It was on a part of our workstations, with other profiles. I
    forgot to set it on all the production machines, shame on me...

    BTW, I was able to pass to '04 the *.cus file without problem. Except that I
    had the 'symetry all' button linked to 'alt-s', and now i cannot use it, SW
    tells me the shortcut is already used. And this command does not exists in
    '04, so I cannot remove it in '04. I'll try with 2001+...
