ConMan Posted December 2, 2013 Share Posted December 2, 2013 So finally was able to upgrade to Inventor 2014 Pro. Created part (two sketches), converted to sheet metal, set thickness, and made part with lofted flange. Went to create flat pattern and there is no flat pattern button. Have SP1 installed and rebooted but still no button. Screen shot and ipt attached... 2334-03-PN-03.ipt Reference old thread on this problem here.

ConMan Posted December 2, 2013 Author Share Posted December 2, 2013 OP Update: Coworker was not able to replicate. He generated flat pattern which was there when I opened file. There was no ribbon button to toggle between flat pattern and folded part (for me). Was able to double click flat pattern and folded part in tree to toggle between however. New parts still do not allow flat pattern generation (for me). Only difference is coworker does not have SP 1 installed, and is now leery to do so...

Happy_Camper Posted December 3, 2013 Share Posted December 3, 2013 Silly question but is flat pattern selected? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
ConMan Posted December 3, 2013 Author Share Posted December 3, 2013 Well now how would that be a silly question? Of course that is what the problem was. Apparently when I installed SP1 it toggled off some panels. Der. Also needed to toggle on folded part panel when in flat pattern mode.
