Finally got onto Wildfire, and I must say, thus far, I likes what I sees. But I do need to ask a quick quesiton to the sheetmetal users out there.
When designing parts in sheetmetal, the majority of my features were sheetmetal features (walls, forms, etc.) but when I need to create weld tabs, I found it a lot easier to create regular solid protrusion features instead. They were easily identifiable, easier to pattern and control.
Now in Wildfire, it seems that when you design in sheetmetal, you are restricted to solid sheetmetal features only, and only have the ability to create regular solid cuts.
I know that if I play with the sheetmetal features, I can create my weld tabs as needed, but I am curious as to what methods others are following when designing weld tabs in sheetmetal parts.
