Sheet Metal Commands and Toolbars

Sheet Metal Toolbar icon	Flyout Toolbar icon	Command	Description
		SMFLANGEBASE command	Create a base (initial) flange of a sheet metal part from a closed planar profile.
		SMEXTRUDE command	Create a sheet metal part by extruding a polyline in the direction of the normal of the curve plane. Thickness is assigned with respect to the external dimensions of the polyline.
		SMLOFT command	Create sheet metal part with lofted bends and flanges from 2 non-coplanar curves.
		SMCONVERT command	Automatically recognize flanges, bends and lofted bends in a 3D solid.
		SMFLANGEEDGE command	Create one or more flanges on a sheet metal part by pulling one or more edges of an existing flange.
		SMFLANGECONTOUR command	Create a new flange from a closed contour and attach it to an existing sheet metal part.
		SMFLIP command	Change the reference side for selected flanges with an optional shift of the flange geometry by thickness.
		SMFLANGEROTATE command	Rotate a flange.
		SMHEMCREATE command	Create one or more closed hem features on a sheet metal part by pulling one or more edges of an existing flange.
		SMHEMCREATE command	Create one or more open hem features on a sheet metal part by pulling one or more edges of an existing flange.
		SMHEMCREATE command	Create one or more Teardrop hem features on a sheet metal part by pulling one or more edges of an existing flange.
		SMHEMCREATE command	Create one or more Round hem features on a sheet metal part by pulling one or more edges of an existing flange.
		BMINSERT command	Insert form features.
		SMFORM command	Create form feature from given set of faces.
		SMFORM command	Explode form feature in flanges and bend if possible.
		SMBEAD command	Create an associative bead feature on a flange face from a planar 2D curve.
		SMREPLACE command	Replace form features (including recognized ones) in sheet metal parts with form features from a built-in or user library.
		SMBENDCREATE command	Convert hard edges (sharp edges between flange faces) and junctions into bends.
		SMBENDSWITCH command	Convert bends to lofted bends.
		SMFLANGEBEND command	Bend an existing flange along a line, obeying k-factor for given bend radius.
		SMJUNCTIONCREATE command	Convert hard edges into junctions.
		SMJUNCTIONSWITCH command	Change a symmetrical junction feature to one with overlapping faces.
		SMFLANGECONNECT command	Close gaps between 2 arbitrarily oriented flanges.
		SMTABCREATE command	Create single tab feature to a sheet metal part by switching existing junction into the tab.
		SMTABCREATE command	Create array tab feature to a sheet metal part by switching existing junction into the tab.
		SMRELIEFCREATE command	Make proper corner and bend reliefs. Corner reliefs are built on corners which have 3 or more adjacent flanges. Bend reliefs are built on the start and end of a flange edge.
		SMRELIEFSWITCH command	Convert a corner relief to a circular relief.
		SMRELIEFSWITCH command	Convert corner reliefs to a rectangular relief.
		SMRELIEFSWITCH command	Convert corner reliefs to a VType relief.
		SMRELIEFSWITCH command	Convert corner reliefs to a Smooth relief.
		SMRELIEFSWITCH command	Convert corner reliefs to a Round relief.
		SMRELIEFSWITCH command	Convert corner reliefs to a Rip relief.
		SMSPLIT command	Split a flange along a line drawn on its face.
		SMSPLIT command	Split a flange by a single vertex in the corner.
		SMSPLIT command	Split a flange by a single vertex in the corner and automatically suggest multiple splits of a similar type.
		SMIMPRINT command	Split thickness faces of a sheet metal part by imprinted edges, according to adjacent flanges and bends.
		SMDISSOLVE command	Remove sheet metal data from the selected faces or entities.
		SMDELETE command	Remove a bend or a junction by restoring a hard edge between two flanges; remove a flange with all the bends adjacent to it. The adjacent flanges are extended up to a junction configuration with the flange being deleted. Remove miter by restoring geometry being cut by the feature.
		SMREPAIR command	Fix problems specific to Sheet Metal parts, both global and local workflows are supported. Optionally heal lofted bend features: merge adjacent bends and provide tangential connection with flanges.
		SMREPAIR command	Fix problems specific to Sheet Metal parts. Only selected flange or wrong bend are repaired.
		SMSELECT command Same form features	Select all identical form features in the sheet metal model.
		SMSELECT command Hard edges	Select all hard edges on sheet metal parts.
		SMSELECT command Non-orthogonal thickness edges	Select all non-orthogonal thickness edges on the sheet metal part.
		SMSELECT command Flat edges	Select flat edges on the sheet metal part.
		SMSELECT command side of the sheet metal part	Select side of the sheet metal part.
		SMPARAMETRIZE command	Create a consistent set of 3D constraints for the selected sheet metal part.
		SMUNFOLD command	Unfold the sheet metal body.
		Associatively SMUNFOLD command	Open an additional window with model's unfolded representation.
		SMEXPORTOSM command	Export a sheet metal solid to the .osm (Open Sheet Metal) file format.
		SMEXPORT2D command	Export the unfolded representation of a sheet metal body as a 2D profile in .dxf / .dwg file format.
		SMASSEMBLYEXPORT command	Perform a batch export of assembly components to unfolding, creating a .dxf per each 3D solid recognized as sheet metal part.
		FEATURECOLORS system variable	Toggle the FEATURECOLORS system variable.
