dbarber Posted November 15, 2023 Share Posted November 15, 2023 Hi All, Can anyone shed some light on this problem I have occasionally with sheetmetal cornerbreaks. Occasionally I find that when I I try to unfold a sheet metal part with corner breaks it gives me a corner break error If I accept then it removes the corner breaks in the flat pattern and the dxf. sometimes If I redraw the item and add the corner breaks it works ok?? attached are 2 models one with and one without breaks Speed controller mount plate no Corner Break.ics Speed controller mount plate with Corner Break.ics Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Cary OConnor Posted November 15, 2023 Share Posted November 15, 2023 The model data may be old or from a previous version of IronCAD. Open the file and hit Regenerate from the Tools Ribbon bar. Click Yes to the dialog below: Then it will unfold properly. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
dbarber Posted November 16, 2023 Author Share Posted November 16, 2023 Hi Cary Thanks for the quick response. Problem solved. Is there a reason the software couldn't automatically prompt you to update if your working on an old ICS. As I remember it. Inventor did this if you opened an assembly that contained parts that were created on an older version. Thanks again for the help. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Cary OConnor Posted November 16, 2023 Share Posted November 16, 2023 We don’t force that change since sometimes that change in versions could change old models geometry (thus a different result). That is why it is a dialog to ask if a user wants to make that upgrade. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
