Bending

Use the Bend tool to bend straight lines and edges to form an arc. You can also use the Bend tool to adjust the radius of arcs and arced edges. Bend works on straight lines when you are sketching and when you are editing in cross-section.

You can insert a point curve text file to make a complicated bend.

To bend a line or edge

1   Select the Bend tool from the Sketch ribbon group.

2   If you are working in Section mode, select the face that contains the edge.

3   Click and drag a line or arc to bend it or change its radius.

Enter a value to dimension the radius.
