Summary: Be able to derive a part from a flat pattern and have the have the fold and unfold attributes as part of it.

Description: I would like to derive the flat pattern to a new part file. Derive component of a sheetmetal part should have an option 'folded part / flat pattern' like in idw view creation.

How Used: Deriving the flat pattern of a sheetmetal part would be usefull for progressiv die design. You could also use it for nesting many flat patterns in an IAM. By now you have to use a non associative SAT file of the flat pattern.

Feature Affinity: Sheet Metal
