Occasionally after we have created and saved a drawing with the bend table with the bends in the bend order we want SolidWorks seems to ...

Re: 2022 sheetmetal bend lines in flat pattern dxf

VAR solved my issue without having to do a clean uninstall and reinstall. Did a registry reset by renaming the "Solidworks 2022" Registry key and restarting Solidworks. It was a rather simple fix just took some time to coordinate time for a WebEx with my VAR Support staff.

Thanks all. I figured it was on my end but do not know the cause. I may have to do a complete uninstall/install next week.

Re: 2022 sheetmetal bend lines in flat pattern dxf

Jason, The part file is attached. I am the only one currently using 2022 at all. We are a two person organization and I have only used 2022 for a few files.

Re: 2022 sheetmetal bend lines in flat pattern dxf

We had this problem in 2022 sp3 and bellow. At the time, we had to switch on both View Bend Lines & View Sketches to be able to send the bend lines to DXF. But after SP3 this was solved (for us). You may want to test with two options while they are ON. - 2022-12-01_23-12-57.png Tera, Thank you ...

Re: 2022 sheetmetal bend lines in flat pattern dxf

Thank you for looking. I have reached out to my VAR for support about this. Will have to see if they can figure it out. I attempted an install repair and that did not help.
