You may want to delete parts of adjacent bends when creating bends.

Example of bend location that allows to release the angle:
a flat ring face of the created Bend 1 partially coincides
with a flat rectangular face of the adjacent Bend 2
Bend relief is set in the Release section.
To select the required method for bend relief, use the Method group of buttons.

Bend along the chain of edges joined by bends

While using the Bend releasing the angle is only possible if the line of the created bend is perpendicular to the lines of the adjacent bends. |
