Hi,

can you help to check how to unfold attached part? I can create the unfold view in Annotation but can not unfold the 3d model.

thanks!

Hi,

The problem is that OSD cannot unfold bends larger than 179 degrees or so. We found that out with a similar bend in Sheet Advisor. I attached a modified version of your model, where I put a small straight piece of 0.1 mm somewhere halfway the bend. Now it unfolds. A straight piece of 0.001 mm will probably work, too :)
I hope CoCreate will fix that limitation some day...
Kind Regards,
Jaap
