This is not directly related to this post, and perhaps it has been discussed elsewhere on this site, but…
I have only used the solidworks sheet metal tool a few times, and have found it to be pretty nice. I have been using the sheet metal tools in Unigraphics NX5 at work, and I have found the two tools (solidworks and nx) to be very similar. In NX when you create an edge flange you have the option as to whether or not you want the flange to be the full width of the selected edge, align with one side of the selected edge, extending along the edge a given distance, or simply float somewhere between the two end points of the edge. How do you create a flange like this in solidworks? Certainly solidworks does not expect that every flange you create will run the full length of the adjacent edge! Am I missing something here? Thanks!

It was late last night when I did it so I figured I would go ahead and post it and work on the audio problems for the next video.

Very interesting new feature. The company has proven to be worthy of the awards they garnered by continuously pursuing the improvement of Solidworks with its features along with updated tutorials to make the interface easier.
