In Edge-Flange Feature manager Clicked "Edit Flange Profile" button and dragged the flange and made it longer than the base flange. <BR itxtvisited="1"><BR itxtvisited="1">At this step I receive the following Error:<BR itxtvisited="1">------------------------------------------------<BR itxtvisited="1">Unable to create the flange from the sketch<BR itxtvisited="1">------------------------------------------------<BR itxtvisited="1"><BR itxtvisited="1">If I drag the flange and make it the same length as the Base Flange or shorter, It works fine. But if it's longer, I receive this error.<BR itxtvisited="1"><BR itxtvisited="1">Here is a screen capture. http://img840.imageshack.us/img840/5115/solidworks.jpg
