Change the Inside Bend Radius (R) of Sheet Metal Edge

This section explains how to edit the bend radius.

When you select a bend on a sheet metal part, a red handle will appear on the inside of the bend.
You can edit the radius via the right-click context menu on the red handle.

Uncheck [Use minimum bend radius of part], then input a value for either [Inside radius] or [Outside radius] to change the bend radius (R).

Inside and outside bends use opposite measurement directions.
"Inside bend" means the bend curves inward by the sheet thickness from the stock line.
Therefore, the actual measurement position is on the outside.
(The overall length matches the width of the stock.)
