ECAD on sheetmetal

I used sheetmetal module to creat a flex pcb. Components were placed through ECAD import at flat state. When the flex is bent/bend back, all components do not follow. Any way to ensure component placement to follow bent state of the flex?
 
Bit of a hassle but yes it can be done.

Each flat placement area should have a coordinate system referenced to it.

do an ECAD import for each flat placement area and bring in only the components for that area and co-ordinate system. While doing this you will either have to rename your co-ordinate systems OR change the value of ecad_board_csys_def_name.
