Sheet Metal Parts

Is there any way to fabricate a sheet metal part that has flanges which are offset from the edges of the face without it putting the small notches on the face like this? (Not my picture, had problems uploading one, but it's the same general idea) I don't need them, but I still want the part in the sheet metal generator so I can get a flat pattern, otherwise I would just use the bend tool in a normal part.

Re: Sheet Metal Parts

You should be able to change the bend position.
To get what you want, select the option so it places the bend outside of the face.

Hmm. I swear I tried that before, but it worked, so thanks!
