Setting the default bending radius in sheet metal

Do you know, that… ?

Designing sheet metal, the first operation imposes default parameters, ie. thickness, radius, k factor or type of undercut.

This is obvious, when the sheet metal is created immediately from the sketch “bent”.

The situation is different, if the sheet metal is pulled out from closed contour. Then we do not provide the radius or cutting method, and yet it is defined. You can check this out, for example:. bending the edge in the next operation.

So how to change the default parameters, that have not been previously defined?

It's simple. You need to edit the first operation sheet metal and change the default parameters there. note, that you can change not only the radius there, but also an allowance or undercut, which is not needed in a flat baking tray.
